Perfect for fans of Peter Robinson, Reginald Hill, Douglas Clark, Colin Dexter and P.D. James. Dive into this gripping collection of police procedurals.
Detective Chief Inspector Gil Mayo earned his stripes in the Met’s Serious Crime Division, but opted for a quieter life in Lavenstock after the tragic death of his wife.
But in the quiet corners of rural England, nothing is ever as it seems.
From gunshot wounds and suspicious falls to brutal strangulations and vicious attacks, Mayo is pushed to breaking point.
No matter how experienced Mayo becomes, or however many mangled corpses he examines, the first glimpse of the next one is always a nasty shock. And these cases are about to push him to the limit.
THE DETECTIVE
DCI Gil Mayo is a man of few words but sharp resolve. He’s the kind of detective who might be found muttering to himself about a case in the quiet moments, reciting his favourite detective stories to himself, or making notes about cases on napkins during his lunch break. Tough when needed, empathetic when required, he brings both intellect and humanity to every case he tackles.
THE SETTING
Lavenstock is a picturesque town, with fog-draped streets, historic houses and a close-knit community. The Stockwell River often reflects the moody skies above, and its banks are a popular spot for quiet walks. On the surface, the town offers the calm of rural life, but lurking beneath its idyllic charm is a darkness that’s waiting to be uncovered.
This collection includes books 4-13 of this gripping series. They can be enjoyed starting from book 4.
