  • A Peculiar Collection on April 29, 2010
    star star star star star
    I read this collection because I wanted to encourage another writer. Tales of the dark, the supernatural, the unexplained are generally not my cuppa'. However, one must give credit where it is due, and it is due in this case. Ms. Hinsley has created a page turner, with chills, and surprises, and real, human reaction. If you like a book that has you looking over your shoulder, get this one. Well done, Ms. Hinsley.
  • At the Sharpe End on March 10, 2012
    star star star star star
    Open any major newspaper in any city in the world in 2008 and you have the backdrop of At The Sharpe End. Take a westerner and settle him (almost) comfortably in Japan during a time of financial and political turmoil, and then hand him some technology he shouldn't have and you have the front story. Briton Ken Sharpe didn't ask for this technology which has very dangerous applications, but once he has it and figures out its potential, everyone wants it back. Now he's in the middle of East/West political power struggles, blackmail, threats, and murder. He just might have to save the day, just to save his own life.
