Praise for Shrouded

'Davis reminds me strongly of Barbara Vine, but with darker edges and more sexual tension than is found in Vine's work. Douglas in particular is a striking creation, the more so because we are with him every step of the way in his evolution from outsider to sex killer ... This novel gives voice and substance to characters too often ignored in contemporary English fiction, and at the same time builds to a nerve-jangling finale ... Crime fiction is no longer inferior to literary fiction: the best of it is literary fiction.' -- Ian Rankin

'An accomplished crime novel... Well written and appropriately claustrophobic.' --Time Out

She talks and laughs a lot to cover up her shyness, but what Douglas really needs is a lover who'll stay still - perfectly still. Perhaps he can put Marjorie into a state of limbo and use her to feed his growing sexual hunger. Douglas studies his textbooks to find a way ...
