Late Checkout is the first book in the DCI Murrain series. DCI Kenny Murrain has the ability to see, hear and feel things that others do not. It is a gift, but it is also a curse. He wakes up to the sound of screaming and he knows that a murder has been committed somewhere. A woman’s body is found in a Stockport hotel room which seems carefully planned. More bodies follow, all with the same planning. The victims are all linked to one police colleague who is part of his own team. With the killer piling up bodies, time is against Murrain.
The Shadow Walker is the first book in the Inspector Nergui series. The story sees a victim dumped on a side street with no head and hands. This ends up just being the first of the murders, but the Serious Crimes Team has no chance of catching the killer. With no answers, senior British investigating officer Drew McLeish is called in. The officer is thousands of miles from home in Ulan Baatar, Mongolia where this type of crime is unheard of.
