Amazon Review by Rhoswen: Slow Poison is beautifully written and has a darkness, a violence, that creeps up on you and comes as a total surprise. I can honestly say that I haven't read anything like this before, it's certainly unique, and I enjoyed it. This is a story of how slow, creeping revenge can reach out from the past and effect what's happening right now, and not in a good way. There's a shocking case of mistaken identity which leaves a killer at large but; there's also a diary with a world of darkness at it's heart. 

There are multiple layers of planning and plotting as you travel from one era to the next, one location to the next, but it's handled well and you don't feel lost. 

Strange, quirky, took me a while to get into the style of writing but certainly worth downloading because it's so different.

Amazon Review by Sidney: I was hooked from the very first page and totally absorbed in the brilliant writing and descriptive narrative. True, there are errors, but it has to be remembered that this is an un-edited and unpolished novel. This fact I think adds to its raw brutality.

It is a hard hitting and relentless tale of slow-burning revenge spanning 40 years and 3 generations. The descriptions of life on the breadline are so absorbing that I could almost taste and smell the estate on the outskirts of Gloucester, in which it is predominantly set. Its pace and its beautiful writing left me reeling and breathless in places and I couldn't put it down.

Amazon Review by Daydreamer: This is a good play on mistaken identity - the imprisonment of a youth for a shocking murder in Amsterdam when, it eventually transpires, the real murderer is another person who has an agenda of death to meet on others in vengeance for the mayhem he once experienced on a seedy Gloucestershire estate.

Amazon Review by Eve: I was first attracted to this book because of the contrast between the beautiful Cotswolds, which I know quite well, and the brutality which, I had thought, irreconcilable with such a place.

Perhaps more interesting though, is that the killer is incited to commit his trail of murders by coming under the influence of a diary written about the WWII death camps and I do sometimes wonder whether, even today, society somewhere, in some country, might still be so fragile as to have failed to recognise when evil can creep back again.
