'Intriguing and original tale of friendship and courage' - Publishers Weekly

Tucked away in a quiet corner of Cambridge sits a shop filled with charming stationery and exquisite pens. Here Clara Cohen performs her particular type of magic, writing life-changing letters to strangers in need. Clara understands the transformative power of correspondence, so when she uncovers her great-grandmother’s wartime love letters, she embarks on a profound journey to Amsterdam in the hopes of healing the tragedies of the past and, in doing so, change her own future.

We’ve had some great endorsements for The Devil’s Smile by @danielsellersauthor, which is out August 21st.

Have you preordered?
 
October, 1995. Adrian Brown’s second year at Leeds University is a blur of throbbing bass line and neon-lit nights out. However, a violent encounter with a man he met in a basement club has the power to sober him up.
Sheila Hargreaves, who has grown fond of Adrian following their brush with the infamous Lollipop Man, has written a book about the murders and is busy with a new TV show, Yorkshire CrimeTime. And then her erratic co-presenter Tony Tranter goes missing, and his body turns up riddled with stab wounds. Could his death be linked to recent violent attacks on men?

Moving from dark city corners to the glare of the TV studio lights, Sheila and Adrian find themselves on the trail of another killer.
