Great review for The Race to Truth
29 Sep 2014
‘… I think deserves mentioning is the brilliant way that Emma engages with the reader; possibly because of her ability to humanize matters. She really draws the reader in and essentially makes them walk through everything as if they were really there as a fly on the wall. The ability she has to make the reader feel the guilt of involvement in the drug scene of cycling, the agony of the legal procedure and the emotional roller coaster that eventually leads to hope is executed brilliantly.’
‘I recommend this book whole heartedly. It’s a book that possibly more than anything gives us a more rounded view of the era of cycling we have- hopefully- emerged from.’
‘For those out there , like me, were the Armstrong fans who read the autobiographies and drunk in the words in blind belief: read this book., I found it a great blank filler.’

Good Telegraph review for Dickie Arbiter
29 Sep 2014
‘Former Palace press secretary Dickie Arbiter’s memoirs of the Royal family are as candid as they are affectionate.’
‘On Duty With The Queen provides a fascinating, and humanising, portrait of the Royal family as we never see them.’
