So you like thrillers? Then enjoy this and sit back for a slow literary ride as Jen Williams takes us into the depths of a killers mind and a twisty telling of Grimm'esq fairytales, things that go bump in the night and evil often at its most depraved.
Dog Rose Dirt may well be a marmite novel - I enjoyed it, I kept with the pace, the ending was good but for some, the storyline may not fire them up? The main character, Heather, is hard to get to know but maybe that's the point? A stand alone thriller that slowly generates foreboding and anticipation at every turn of the page; just keep with it for a satisfyingly gory end!
