Order of Rebecca Tope Books

Rebecca Tope is an English author of crime fiction. She writes the Den Cooper, Drew Slocombe, Thea Osborne and Lake District Mysteries series. She was raised in Cheshire, England and then moved to Devon, while living the farming life. The experiences she had farming inspired her to write A Dirty Death, her first novel. Before becoming a novelist, Rebecca worked as a pre-natal instructor, marriage counselor and funeral director. All of her past occupations have lent themselves to her writing. Rebecca lives on a farm in Herefordshire, England.

Rebecca Tope became a published author in 1999 with her debut novel, A Dirty Death. She followed it up later that year with Dark Undertakings, beginning her Drew Slocombe series. Below is a list of Rebecca Tope’s books in order of when they were first published:
