Hen's Teeth
4 journalers for this copy...
Set in Glasgow, this intricate plot revolves around genetic engineering and veterinary science. Dr Kellen Stewart and her friend Lee set out to discover the truth, but how safe is their quest?
Thanks for this 'wish fulfilment' Jen, part of my fab UnCon goodie bag :)
The debut from Newmarket-based Scottish ‘veterinary surgeon, writer and climber, not necessarily in that order’ introduces Dr Kellen Stewart and her past and present Sapphic lovers & friends. There are a lot of strong females in this and for someone used to hetero books [although I didn’t know before reading this!], some of the anti-stereotypes and language was strangely disconcerting, but that’s probably just me :)
The plot is suitably convoluted, involving genetics, hen’s(!) and the mean streets of Glasgow. A fast-paced and well plotted crime thriller.
(Thanks again for this Mytilus...after spending a couple of years with me, now ready to pass on)

Waiting for a meeting in Caffe Nero Ipswich (for someone who did not turn up), I picked this off the shelf and was soon immersed. I found it enjoyable but overcomplicated; some of the characters are quite absurd. I will release it back into the wild.
