THE COMPLETE TRILOGY IN ONE SUPER VALUE BOX SET

Two senior detectives lock horns in a terrific battle of wits

ONE STEP AHEAD

He spent his life fighting crime. Now he has a taste for it himself. His first attack is a stab in the dark. Next time, he’ll kill.

Knowing how the police work, ex-detective Jeffrey Brandt will stay one step ahead of their investigation. He will even taunt those trying to establish his identity and catch him.

One woman, DCI Stella Johnson, is responsible for finding him. Has she got what it takes?

HIDE AND SEEK

Ex-detective superintendent Brandt has turned against society. The first kill was almost on impulse, but now he’s got a real taste for it.

But his pursuer, DCI Stella Johnson, has rankled him. She has leaked to the press the idea that Brandt is impotent. This has enraged him and Brandt wants to prove himself. Who better a victim than the woman who has embarrassed him?

Johnson’s strategy backfires and she is in trouble with her superiors. Yet she now has a very personal reason to hunt down Brandt. But will going solo put her at even greater risk than before? And just what has Brandt in store for her?

SMOKE AND MIRRORS

Retired policeman Brandt has gone underground. He is even living something like a normal life. He killed to make society stand up and take notice. It did. His crimes are notorious. So infamous, in fact, that someone wants to emulate him.

How will Brandt react to a copycat killer? Will he be flattered, or disturbed that someone wants to steal his limelight?

Crucially, for investigating officer DCI Stella Johnson, the new spate of murders might offer an opportunity to finally bring Brandt to justice. Can she stop the new killer in his tracks? And can she catch her nemesis?

All three books are available separately on Kindle and as paperbacks.
