The Silent Man

When missing teenager Jennifer Standing is found and a man is arrested at the scene, she becomes the only survivor in an ongoing serial killer investigation led by Detective Inspector Matthew Myers. Close to his breaking point, the faces of the victims haunt his every waking moment. But finally, he has the killer in custody.

However, with a lack of substantial evidence, and a suspect who refuses to speak, Myers is forced to let the killer walk free – a move that will push him to the very edge of sanity.

The Spider's Web

When a serial killer takes his next victim and evades arrest for the third time, a police leak is suspected. An internal investigation is launched, and Detective Inspector Mark Debruin is identified as the lead suspect.

However, with his dying daughter awaiting a transplant in hospital, and a prison sentence hanging over him, Debruin can ill-afford to waste time. He has just one chance to prove his innocence and to save his daughter - he must find the killer before it’s too late.

But, with every step he takes, he uncovers a web of blackmail, lies,and murder. He can trust nobody, not even his partner. The only way forward is to enter the web.

The Mercy Kill

When Harvey Stone betrays his foster-father, John Cartwright, by failing to carry out one of his bloody requests, a series of events unfold, opening doors to the past that should have remained closed for eternity. A killer is awoken, and his sights are set on revenge.

Racked with guilt, Harvey takes one last glance at the house where he and sister grew up before turning his back on the family that raised him, setting a course to find his sister’s killer. Little does he know, his betrayal has endangered everyone he loves, and that glance may have been his last.

Thrilling novel that questions good and evil

This series was intriguing and suspenseful, capturing your attention of what is good and evil. Who deserves to die and who decides. The narrator is captivating.

Good Story but Lots of Guts and Gore

These books are a good value, well written with GREAT narration and tell an interesting story. However, I frequently had to skip sections due to all the bloody, gory details. (I don't EVER like bloody scenes graphically described so take that into consideration when deciding whether to listen to it or not.) If you don't mind them, you'll probably enjoy the books. The books should be considered one story, broken up into three books. They're certainly a different take on most British murder mysteries and the last book has an unusual ending.
