About this deal

I'm a big fan of books by Jessie Keane , and this could be her best yet . What I love about them are her strong , gritty , no nonsense , direct , sometimes violent to reach the goal female characters , and she has created a crime queen in the character in Diamond. One of the most successful Romany writers in the UK today, Jessie was born in Winchester in a traditional barrel-topped caravan parked on her parent’s drive upon her grandmother’s insistence that she be born Romany. Diamond by Jessie Keane was another superb historical crime fiction book and one of her best. This latest book had me gripped from the beginning till the end. I loved it. However, it is slightly different from all her other books but still an excellent read. I really enjoyed this story, plunged into gangland London in the early twentieth century, this was a compelling story.

So what are the new Jessie Keane books releasing in 2022 or beyond? The bookworms here at booksrelease.com have been hard at work compiling and sorting the official list of Jessie Keane newest books 2022, Jessie Keane new releases 2022/2023 and beyond. Diamond escapes to Paris and away from the violence and fear of living with Victor. But soon trouble finds her again…oh this book runs and runs. Leaving behind a dead body and forced to return to London, she meets Richard Beaumont, an aristocratic son, damaged by war but sparks fly between them. Very different to her other books but just as good,a rollercoaster of a read,brilliantly written and filled with characters you'll love and hate. Diamond Butcher is the daughter of Warren and Frenchie Butcher, and big sister to Aiden and Owen, who was brain damaged at birth. The Butchers are gangland rivals of the Wolfe family and have been for some time.

This felt like a huge family saga, a cross between Peaky Blinders, Eastenders and Downton Abbey! It’s tough and gritty, but very addictive and I stopped reading anything else so I could finish this. Although this is set in the past, this book felt quite contemporary to me. It’s honest and believable. There is pain, love and hardship, life laid bare, it’s a real rip roaring piece of historical crime fiction. This is not so much a gangland thriller as we have come to expect and is set in the era just after the first world war. In my opinion this is the best book to date written by Jessie Keane and I really hope there is a sequel as I’d love to read more about Diamond. Jessie is proud of her heritage. She said: “Gypsies are strong, resilient and tough as old boots. It's a honour to be one of them.

Eventually, after suffering the death of both parents, her brother Aiden and miscarrying her baby, Diamond's life starts on its upward spiral and it looks like her life is changing for a more settled future. Diamond Butcher is a formidable woman who has survived so much trauma in her life both in her earlier years in England after her fathers untimely death and then in her time spent in Paris. Profession: You name it. Madam, club owner, gangster’s moll, mother, Mafia queen. In one word – trouble. Our bookworms are adding upcoming Jessie Keane books 2022 as soon as they're announced, giving you less searching and more reading time.
