the crime fiction book box where the book is just the beginning
what's in the box?
*Book shown is for illustrative purposes only - a new book is chosen every month and titles are never repeated in our subscriptions.
"Our mission is to bring you a deeper enjoyment of your favourite genre of crime fiction, to help you find some great new authors and have some reading adventures outside the Times & Amazon best-sellers lists. And bring together a like-minded family of readers along the way."
