A Tapping At My Door is a spellbinding and spine chilling read that
had me literally on the edge of my seat...It had me well and truly
gripped from beginning to end.

As flawed heroes go, Cody is up there with the best in every sense
and you'll find yourself worrying about him as much as the bloody
terror he's facing. A thrilling series opener.
*Weekend Sport*
I was sucked in and had tears in my eyes and a lump in my throat.
At other points, I just couldn't turn the pages fast enough.
Jackson's writing is flawless. Clear and concise. To the point and
cuts you when you're not looking. Utterly utterly fabulous. What a
way to start a series! Highly recommended.
*Murder Down to A Tea Blog*
His writing style is brilliant and a joy to read...Jackson has
created wonderful new characters with DS Cody and DC Webley. The
plot of A Tapping At My Door opens in best Hitchcock tradition and
moves along smoothly with enough suspense to keep the reader
enthralled right until the unexpected ending
*Devoted to Thrills Blog*
The opening chapter of Jackson's new novel features a spine
tingling level of fear that mounts at a cracking pace... Jackson's
strength lies in being able to execute a challenging plot device
with sensitivity, empathy and care. He's all about delivering
emotional depth while entertaining his readers.
*Pam Reader Blog*
It takes quite a lot to render me speechless but this book did just
that. There was a moment near the end that I switched off to
everything around me as I wanted to give everything I had as a
reader to the final few pages of the book that is definitely going
to be in my Top 10 of 2016...perfection'
*My Chestnut Reading Tree Blog*
A deliciously dark and compelling investigation... a well-executed
thriller, with plenty of scope and a firm foundation for a
projected series.
*Raven Crime Reads Blog*
It's one of the few novels that I have read where I felt some
empathy towards the killer and revulsion towards a victim. It's a
fantastic novel, the first in a new series that has huge
potential.
*Steph's Book Blog*
'A Tapping at my Door is a superbly written crime thriller. It is
full of action, with some brilliantly drawn characters thrown into
the mix. I cannot recommend it highly enough and I gave it 5 stars
on Goodreads. It kept me reading late into the night.
*bibliophilebookclub.com*
It's a fast paced crime thriller featuring the hunt for a vengeful
serial killer. Absolutely everything I love in a book!
*Damp Pebbles Blog*
A Tapping at My Door is the best crime fiction novel I've read.
It's an outstanding book, and it's one that I am going to be
recommending to everybody.
*Book Addict Shaun Blog*
I can't recommend this book enough, it is definitely going to be in
my top ten reads of 2016, there isn't one bit that could have been
better!
*Cleopatra Loves Books Blog*
A very decent police thriller...well written and quite gripping
*Sid's Book Blog*
It grabs you right from the start and doesn't let go...An
outstanding read. A first rate gem of read. Oh god I need to get
more books by this author!
*I Love Reading Blog*
By far the best book I have read this year...this book picks you up
from page one and doesn't put you down till the last page. It is a
rollercoaster of plot, intrigue, false turnings and twists.
*breakawayreviews.co.uk*
The Liverpool setting makes for an interesting change, the
characters are well drawn and the plot builds to a taut and tense
conclusion. In all, a worthy addition to the annals of British
detective fiction
*The Sydney Morning Gerald*
A pacy, suspenseful story with a dramatic finale and with some
teasing loose ends that will no doubt be followed up (I hope!) -
this is a series that I will happily follow and I look forward to
meeting Nathan Cody again
*My Reading Corner Book Blog*
Jackson has proved himself a clever and compelling writer and A
Tapping at My Door is a powerful opener... a gripping, atmospheric
chiller with a spine-tingling hint of Hitchcock, a superbly drawn
cast and a police procedural so authentic that it's like tagging
along with the CID
*blackpoolgazette.co.uk*
This is a gripping, tense, edge-of-your-seat thriller that will
keep you guessing until the very end
*Nudge Books*
Quite possibly the creepiest opening to a crime novel that I have
ever read. It feels like a horror film, you don't want to look, but
you do anyway. DS Cody is a fantastic character and the unusual
twist to the plot had me hooked
*Damp Pebbles*
The ending on that will take your breath away and you can't tell
anyone else about it or you'll ruin the book. But, it's stunning. I
love David Jackson's work. I'd pick up anything he writes without
reading the back
