About the book
In the heart of England’s Lake District, murder lurks behind postcard-perfect views—and DI Skelgill is the only man stubborn enough to chase it down.
Maverick and maddeningly brilliant, Detective Inspector Daniel Skelgill doesn’t play by the book. With his loyal team at his side, he untangles crimes as complex as the rugged terrain they unfold in—from baffling disappearances to chilling murders no one saw coming.
This boxset includes the first four full-length novels in the acclaimed DI Skelgill series, delivering classic British crime fiction with wit, atmosphere, and twisty mysteries that keep readers guessing.
There’s no need for gore or gratuitous violence—just sharply plotted cases, deeply engaging characters, and a detective whose quirks are as legendary as his instincts.

A horror novel becomes a map for real killings, and every page points back to the house where it was written.
The Nightmare Man
Horror · Thriller
Our take
A horror novel becomes a map for real killings, and every page points back to the house where it was written. When detective Mills investigates a string of ritualistic murders tied to Ben Bookman’s latest book, Ben is forced to confront the Blackwood family legacy, a forbidden library, and the possibility that something ancient has slipped free. A haunted-house horror built on cursed stories, buried memory, and mounting dread.

About the book
T. Kingfisher meets Cassandra Khaw in this “fast-paced” haunted house story full of “old-school horror” and “brimming with edgy tension and evil” (Library Journal)!
When the terrifying plot of a horror novel comes to life, its author discovers there’s a fine line between humanity and monstrosity . . .
Blackwood mansion looms, surrounded by nightmare pines, atop the hill over the small town of Crooked Tree. Ben Bookman, bestselling novelist and heir to the Blackwood estate, spent a weekend at the ancestral home to finish writing his latest horror novel, The Scarecrow. Now, on the eve of the book’s release, the terrible story within begins to unfold in real life.
Detective Mills arrives at the scene of a gruesome murder: a family butchered and bundled inside cocoons stitched from corn husks, and hung from the rafters of a barn, eerily mirroring the opening of Bookman’s latest novel. When another family is killed in a similar manner, Mills, along with his daughter, rookie detective Samantha Blue, is determined to find the link to the book—and the killer—before the story reaches its chilling climax.
As the series of “Scarecrow crimes” continues to mirror the book, Ben quickly becomes the prime suspect. He can’t remember much from the night he finished writing the novel, but he knows he wrote it in The Atrium, his grandfather’s forbidden room full of numbered books. Thousands of books. Books without words.
As Ben digs deep into Blackwood’s history he learns he may have triggered a release of something trapped long ago—and it won’t stop with the horrors buried within the pages of his book.

About the book
A shocking death along the shores of Lake Como rocks a police officer to her core, pulling her into a showdown with a past she’s been running from far too long.
Police officer Ali Falco has created a comfortable life in the beautiful Tuscan city of Siena, Italy patrolling the ancient streets. Behind the walls of the medieval town it’s easy to keep the past out of mind, but shocking news of her father’s death is impossible to ignore, forcing her to return north to her childhood home of Como, a stunning lakeside city tucked into the Italian Alps, and the site of a lot of bad memories.
She and her father were tightly bonded until the death of her mother thrust a divide between them. Hate him or not, though, something about his death doesn’t look right. In fact, it looks very wrong, and she soon finds herself caught up in a case that pulls all the demons out of the dark depths of her past, along with a few that may still be lurking around the picturesque valley she used to call home.
As questions surface, answers prove elusive. Was her father the monster she assumed? Or is there much more at play going on in those memories of hers, something as complex as it is disturbing? With the help of a local Carabinieri agent, an intriguing man with a dark past of his own, she’ll soon learn she’s risking her own life, and a potential chance at love, to find answers.
As more people die, more blood is shed to keep secrets, the ultimate question will remain: Can Ali overcome the impossible? Or will the Falco lineage end with her?
From the international multi-million copy bestselling author of the David Wolf Series comes the first book in a brand new, pulse-pounding, international mystery series. If you like thrills and mystery, action and intrigue, exotic locales mixed with a touch of romance, then The Como Falcon is perfect for you!
