The latest instalment of Aly Monroe's Peter Cotton thriller series has been met with great reception. Icelight has been nominated for the London Book Award, the short list for which will be announced in June.
Jeremy Jehu, Daily Telegraph ' Confirms Aly Monroe’s genius for creating such tension that, while nothing much happens, you don’t want things to stop not happening. She’s commercial writing’s rarest beast – a gloriously defiant individualist.
Peter Millar, The Times: '...a world of seedy hotels, rent boys, hypocritical politicians, bent policemen and dubious double standards. Riveting stuff' Literary Review: 'Monroe recreates the atmosphere of the time brilliantly...I was gripped from start to finish'
Chris Brocklebank, London Festival Fringe: 'Steeped in a palpably awful shabbiness, pickled in austerity and shrouded in slimy yellow fog, Monroe’s sense of post-war London is astonishingly good'
