About the Author
S W Kane has a degree in History of Design and worked at the Royal Institute of British Architects before taking on a series of totally unrelated jobs in radio and the music industry. She has an MA in Creative (Crime) Writing from City University. She began reading crime fiction at an early age and developed an obsession with crime set in cold places. A chance encounter with a derelict fort in rural Pembrokeshire led to a fascination with urban exploration, which in turn became the inspiration for her crime novels. She lives in London.
Reviews
"A cleverly constructed plot that kept me guessing from the moment urban explorer Connie Darke discovers a grisly murder. The atmosphere of disused, abandoned urban buildings and the people who drift through or feel compelled to linger in them is conveyed superbly." -Jo Leevers, author of Tell Me How This Ends "Old sins cast very long shadows in this absorbing tale of the secrets that lie within a condemned housing estate. S W Kane weaves the threads together so cleverly with a conclusion that packs a terrifying punch. Just brilliant!" -Marion Todd, author of the DI Clare Mackay crime series "Daring and gripping, The Drowning Place drags you into darkest corners both literal and figurative, leaving you gasping and enraptured. A unique, standout addition to crime fiction's top table." -Rob Parker, author of The Thirty Miles Trilogy "These books have a properly modern Gothic feel; once again the location (a housing estate gone to rack and ruin) is unusual and ominous, and peopled with characters who have their own strange secrets to hide - secrets that keep you guessing right up to the end. Connie Darke's compulsion to explore abandoned spaces guarantees some heart-stopping moments, while Lew Kirby faces an impossible personal dilemma - these are genuinely intriguing, original characters. Altogether, a deliciously thrilling read." -Helen Grant, author of The Vanishing of Katherine Lindin
