The Blood Card by Elly Griffiths

The Blood Card by Elly Griffiths

On the eve of the Queen's coronation, DI Stephens and Max Mephisto uncover an anarchist plot and a ticking bomb at the same time as solving the murder of a man close to them - from the author of the bestselling Dr Ruth Galloway mysteries

Griffiths pulls a truly startling rabbit out of the hat, demonstrating that this is more than the cosy mystery it initially appears * Sunday Times *
The lively beginning.. broadens out into an excellent whodunnit, matched by the terrific down-at-heel atmosphere of postwar Brighton * The Times (on Smoke and Mirrors) *
Mixes cosiness and sharpness in a way that recalls the best of Agatha Christie * Sunday Express (on Smoke and Mirrors) *
Enormously engaging ... Post-war Brighton and its Theatre Royal are beautifully captured in all their seedy glory ... subtle, charming and very good * Daily Mail (on The Zig Zag Girl) *
Original, lively and gripping * Independent (on The Zig Zag Girl) *
