The Inspector Jim Carruthers Series Books One to Five: Robbing the Dead, Care to Die, Mark of the Devil, Dark Is the Day, and In Deep Water

Five gritty thrillers in one volume following a police detective and his team in a coastal Scottish town.

Included in this five-book set by the bestselling crime novelist:

Robbing The Dead

In a small Scottish university town, what links a spate of horrific murders, an explosion, and a lecturer’s disappearance? And what does something that happened over forty years ago have to do with it?

Care to Die

Struggling with his demotion back to DI and his concern for grieving DS Andrea Fletcher, Jim Carruthers is thrown in at the deep end when an old man is found stabbed to death in a nature reserve, a ball of cloth rammed into his throat. The only suspect is a fifteen-year-old neighbour known to the police. But the teenager has an alibi . . .

Mark of the Devil

While Carruthers and team are busy investigating a series of art thefts, they receive an anonymous tip about a body on a deserted beach. The bizarre clues to her identity—and what might have happened to her—include a strange tattoo, a set of binoculars, and a slab of meat left on the cliffs . . .

Dark is The Day

Carruthers must put his feelings for DCI Sandra McTavish aside when a young student is brutally attacked and left for dead. At the same, Carruthers’ ex-wife is being stalked by one of her own students. Now he must determine whether the attacker and stalker one and the same.

In Deep Water

When a local fisherman goes missing, DCI McTavish assumes it’s just a tragic accident. But things don’t add up for Carruthers—the man didn’t normally take his boat out at night. Has he taken his own life, or has something more sinister taken place?
