"Fans of female-fronted crime will thoroughly enjoy discovering what Annie decides to do through the serpentine plot of this explosive, edge-of-your-seat novel."
From its arresting, in-your-face opening lines (“The stench of human excrement. It’s long since overpowered the previous effluvial mélange. Ammonia, sweat, rotting fruit”), EA Yorke’s All Several Sins exudes an audacious, engaging Killing Eve vibe as a former Met Detective Chief Inspector works to track down the female boss of an organised crime gang. With a “formidable reputation and her own brand of northern charm”, former DCI Annie Montague has been recruited to lead an OCG team as a new era of law enforcement comes into play. Tasked with bringing in Mila Romano, the ruthless woman who oversees a group that’s responsible for a smorgasbord of crimes (everything from drug and people trafficking, to murder and money laundering), Annie faces not only a dangerous cat and mouse game, but also very personal dangers, with her husband and son put at risk by Mila’s boundlessly uncompromising personality. The writing is slick, sharp and super-charged with energy and emotion as Annie faces that classic, age-old cop conflict between the personal and the professional — what do you do when doing the right thing means putting your loved ones at risk? When the personal and professional become perilously entwined? Fans of female-fronted crime will thoroughly enjoy discovering what Annie decides to do through the serpentine plot of this explosive, edge-of-your-seat novel.
