Praise for Roz Watkins

      ‘The Devil’s Dice is a terrific debut by Roz Watkins; it teems with shivery atmosphere and introduces a cop quietly different from most of the women detectives in British crime fiction today.’

       The Times Crime Book of the Month

      ‘A touch of Agatha Christie, a dash of Ann Cleeves’s Vera and a suitably moody setting in the Peaks . . . bring a formidable newcomer to British crime writing.’

       Daily Mail

      ‘A fascinating debut . . . Watkins brilliantly balances superstition and scepticism in this clever first novel.’

       Sunday Times

      ‘A fabulous book. I can’t wait to meet DI Meg Dalton again.’

       B A Paris

      ‘An outstanding debut. The Devil’s Dice had me gripped from the start.’

       Stephen Booth

      ‘Twisty, creepy, funny, and you may shed a tear too. More DI Meg Dalton please!’

       Caz Frear

      ‘A page-turning debut featuring a fabulous lead character.’

       Susi Holliday

      ‘A fascinating debut with a deliciously old school mystery at its heart. I can’t wait to see what Watkins does next!’

       Angela Clarke

      ‘A pacy, twisty read that had me on the edge of my seat . . . what a brilliant debut!’

       K.L. Slater

      ‘Exceptional debut. Beautifully written and observed crime novel, with such well-rounded maturity it was a pleasure to read from start to finish. Glad it is a series so that we all have a lot more to look forward to.’
