Fiction. ReLit Long Shortlist, 2015. SAVOUR is the follow-up to Bateman's award-winning debut novel, NONDESCRIPT RAMBUNCTIOUS, and the second book in a trilogy about a dark, suspected serial killer named Oliver. Savour retains the dark threads of sociopathic depravity that ran through the debut novel, but is once again tempered with a tender ray of humanity. Lizzy is streetwise, yet fragile, and her desperate journey is both uplifting and heartbreaking.
...A unique and unsettling perspective... The narrative development, driven by character rather than expected machinations of the plot, is a genuine pleasure... SAVOUR contains enough information about the events of NONDESCRIPT RAMBUNCTIOUS to stand on its own, but reading the first novel will bring greater depth to the experience and well prepare the reader for the final volume of the series, which can't come soon enough.--Quill & Quire
Both novels explore sociopathic depravity and contemporary society's desensitization to violence.--BC BookWorld
Praise for Jackie's previous novel NONDESCRIPT RAMBUNCTIOUS:
Vancouver's Jackie Bateman draws on her Scottish roots for a bewitching first novel that transforms from gentle domestic comedy into gripping suspense.--Prairie Fire
