Detective Ratso: Books 1-4
(2025)(A book in the Detective Todd Ratso Holtom series)
An omnibus of novels by Douglas Stewart
★★★★★ ‘THE BEST BRITISH CRIME NOVEL I’VE READ THIS YEAR.’ ★★★★★Murder. Terror. Lies. Only one detective will follow the truth to the ends of the earth.
Detective Todd ‘Ratso’ Holtom doesn’t play by the rules—he plays to win. Sharp-minded, unpredictable, and relentless, he’s the kind of London cop who chases killers across borders and through smoke screens.
Whether it’s murder, fraud, terrorism, or serial predators, if there’s a lead to follow, Ratso will hunt it down—no matter how far it takes him from Scotland Yard.
From the dark underbelly of London to the heat-soaked streets of Florida, Ratso teams up with tough-as-nails detective Kirsty-Ann Webber — newly widowed and driven by her own thirst for justice.
Together, they don’t just solve crimes.
They burn through them.
