Why choose Sublime Book Review?

Finding the right reviews for the right budget can be hard for an Indie or self-published author. And in many cases, you unknowingly pay for a review that is 100% guaranteed positive. While it’s nice for a reviewer to tell you your book is “the greatest book ever written,” this doesn’t necessarily help you, the author, and it certainly doesn’t help the industry leaders (librarians, booksellers, media professionals) make calculated decisions about purchasing your book or requesting your title for their library.

Author B.D. Smith (The Ice Maiden, 2017) continues to showcase his crime-thriller passion with Detective Doug Batemen. This is the second detective book in the standalone series. While the storyline fits the bill for police procedural and delivers an expert crime element, the novel could have been fleshed out a bit more—the reader almost always enjoys a little more background and detail to fill in the gaps. To add to the believable mystery is an also-engaging relationship between the male and female detectives.

Sublime Line: “Fans of great detective series such as True Detective or The Killing will find a home with B.D. Smith and his lead detective, Doug Batemen.”
