Love Investigation

A queer romantic thriller about two men, one city, and a truth worth burning for

He’s supposed to be keeping his head down – not falling for the man who could blow everything wide open.

A rule-breaking detective. A razor-sharp writer. One midnight bagel that changes everything.

London never really sleeps. But in the quiet hours of Farringdon, Detective Callum Fraser is learning to listen – to the city, to his instincts, and to the man who might just upend everything he thought he knew.

After a very public incident involving a deodorant can and a regrettably flammable suspect, Callum’s been sidelined. No chasing leads. No making waves. Just paperwork and penance.

Then Alistair Hargrave walks in. Brilliant. Insomniac. Not his type. Until he is.

Over shared cheesecake and late-night walks through Soho, something begins to build – something dangerous, steady, real. But Alistair isn’t the only mystery keeping Callum awake. A pattern no one else sees is starting to emerge. And pulling at that thread could unravel far more than his quiet night shift.

As the city hums in the dark, trust and timing become a matter of survival. Love might save him. Or it might burn everything down.

Before the first case. Before the first crack. Before it all falls together.
This is where it begins.

Love Investigation is a sharp, slow-burn prequel to the DCI Callum Fraser detective series – a story where love and danger walk the same midnight streets.
