REVIEWS FOR BOOKS & BBC RADIO PLAYS BY AUSTIN STONE

 
​BLOOD STAYS RED
(1949, out of print)


"...[Austin Stone] vividly - much too vividly, one would imagine, for the squeamish - describes murder from the murderer's viewpoint...
He succeeds by some racy writing in shocking the reader into an awareness that murder is ugly and soul-destroying and that writers who have made it appear like a cross between an intelligence test and a treasure hunt have done a lot of us, including murderers, a grave disservice."

-​​The Malvern Gazette
​

​
​HANGMAN'S HARVEST
(1948, out of print)


"Mr. Stone is not only expert at propounding a mystery yarn 'of the first water', but also in lacing it with a full measure of thrills and chills."
-​The Barton Daily Mail
