A MURDERER ON THE LOOSE.
A DETECTIVE HAUNTED BY THE PAST.
A RACE AGAINST TIME.

DCI Jonathan Walker is a senior detective with the Lancashire Constabulary, driven by a need for redemption and shadowed by a past he cannot escape.

When a body is discovered in the quiet village of Rufford, Walker cuts short his leave of absence to lead the investigation. But as the details emerge, the case begins to echo a decades-old murder — the unsolved killing of his own sister.

What begins as a routine inquiry quickly becomes something far more dangerous.

As more victims disappear and bodies surface with the same disturbing signature, Walker and his team realise they are hunting a serial killer. With time running out and another life at risk, the pressure mounts — and the case becomes deeply personal.

To stop the killer, Walker must confront the past he has spent years trying to bury — and decide how far he is willing to go, even if it means crossing the line.

The Icehouse is the gripping debut in the DCI Walker Crime Thrillers series — a British police procedural set across Lancashire and the North West of England.

Each book can be read as a standalone case, but the full story is best enjoyed in order.

Perfect for listeners who enjoy Ian Rankin, Ann Cleeves, and LJ Ross.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A moody, enveloping crime thriller." — SPR Editorial Review

Cool story. Not great narrator.

Loved the story and characters. But the way the narrator did read the female voices was awful,

Gripping story

Really enjoyed that the starts of quickly and reveals characters' details throughout the book. The characters are well developed. The story gets your attention early and keeps it through the entire book. I look forward to reading more books by this author.

Great story, strong characters

It’s so important to me that the main characters in a story are people you like and that you are rooting for. This story doesn’t disappoint. It’s got strong characters, a great storyline and is tightly put together. I loved it!

Ice house

When i first started listening to this book, I wasn't impressed and didn't know the author very well at all. However, I had a 4th grade teacher that told me to read a book until it became interesting; so with those wise words I kept listening and pretty soon the story was outstanding. I really enjoyed this story and the person reading it as well. I will be reading this author has well in the future.

Solid First Entry

Walker, like every copper, faces personal issues that affect his approach to police work and influence his personal life. There remains quite a lot to unpack and work through, especially the questions surrounding the murder of his sister in his youth. Mr. Richards’ story performs well and the narration is pretty good.
