 Every Step You Take by M. A. Hunter-psychological thriller

Molly is a marathon runner and about to run the London Marathon in order to qualify for the Paris Olympics. Unfortunately she has a stalker however the police have told her that he is in prison in Germany. On the day of the London marathon she finds flowers outside her hotel room door, flowers that were her mothers favourite and a note saying he is behind her all the way. Chapters alternate between race day and the training leading up to it and the story with the stalker.

I enjoyed this, possibly more so being a runner. It's been written from very much a runners perspective- giving wonderful descriptions of being out there and battling the elements and the clock, but most of all, yourself again and again. It's a lonely profession in many ways, it made me think of “ The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner” a book from long ago, doing as it says in the title but this one has a sinister air of the stalker possibly hovering at every twist and turn. It's clever and a brilliant insight to both the human mind and body and how Molly deals with this through the race. There’s a clever twist, expect the unexpected. Loved it.

Every Step You Take Run for your life... This year's London Marathon is my last chance to win the final place on the Olympic team. The months of rehabilitation after my injury will feel worth it to cross that line. But I wasn't expecting the man who's been making my life a living hell to be there. Last I knew, my stalker was behind bars, but he says he's going to be at the race watching. I have 26 miles to figure out whether it's him, and what he wants, or I could lose more than just the race. A taut psychological thriller, perfect for fans of Teresa Driscoll, TM Logan and Daniel Hirst. Purchase Link - https://mybook.to/everystepsocial

She takes on the “ucky strike cafe” (the “L” fell off) - its previous owner having disappeared leaving outstanding debts. Her business partner Cy is right behind her.

  More Life as a Dog by LA Davenport- memoirs/humour This is the second in the series (both happily stand alone) about Kevin the dachshund, the “meat seeking missile” and his adventures with his human. Human has a new girlfriend and it’s a nervous time when Kevin is taken to be introduced to her dog. Will he behave or let them both down? This is written in the first person from the humans point of view and tells of outings they have such as a trip back to London after a day out,  but turned into an adventure due to running out of petrol. From meeting Amy Winehouse to poor Kevin being kicked there are the highs and lows of their lives. This is a fun,  light hearted read especially for any dog lover.  Although told from the human perspective, it's told with Kevin at the heart of things. It's heart-warming, it's very touching and also that for some of us, we have overcome much due to having that canine companion at our side. A short, beautiful read. One for over a coffee or t

  Holmes, Marple and Poe by James Patterson-mystery thriller Oh wow! A book I wanted to devour in one helping but didn't want it to end. Holmes, Marple and Poe are PI’s and have just started their own agency together. Each one has particular talents although all are highly attuned to finding out the whys and wherefores to solve a crime. Holmes for example is hyperosmic and can detect scents amongst the normal ones the rest of us can. Are they their real names? Of that we are not sure but what we can be certain of is that they are good at their job, very good and the police department calls them in when things are starting to get beyond them or where they would rather not be involved. Each one has their own secrets from their lives before they got together. Can they solve the crimes and stay under the radar? This is my first James Patterson book. I know , I know, I must have been hiding under a rock. Brilliant and page turning doesn't do this justice. It looks like I have rather
