THE REVIEW SHOW JULY '22

Paul Burke takes a look at the latest crime fiction for July. From surprisingly entertaining financial thriller to the daring wartime rescue of a cow, via a Californian sniper, a Japanese locked room, a couple of serial killers with a plan and a narcissistic pensioner. With apologies for any mispronunciations of Japanese, Spanish, French or even English!
