Growing in Damp Places by A.J. Sefton

Review by Ali Doyle

Thoroughly enjoyed this 'allotment noir' as I followed Jayden, the hapless uni student, get more than he bargained for when he becomes entangled with the 'boring' allotment tending pensioners and the secrets they are determined to keep.

​It's a fast paced easy read with an imaginative and unique plot, reminiscent of Harlan Coben's YA novels. I would definitely recommend this novel - who knew horticulture was so thrilling?!
