The Deadliest Legacy
​
When Delia Day, the world's most successful living romantic novelist, accepts an invitation to be the headline author at a prestigious book festival, she expects a couple of days engaging with fans, attending panels and visiting the local sights. She does not expect to find herself in mortal danger. An unexpected sudden death in the middle of an event is the first in a series of shocking occurrences leading to a potentially catastrophic major incident.
​
Ultimately it is not just Delia and other participants in the Appledore festival - known for attracting big name authors, large audiences of locals and tourists, and national media attention - who are in peril. Those living in much of the surrounding district become at risk.
DCI David Vogel must find the festival killer before more people get hurt - or die . .
The Danger Within
​
A man lies dead on the kitchen floor of his comfortable North Devon home, his body punctured by multiple stab wounds. Beside him sits his silent, traumatised wife.
DCI David Vogel reckons he’s seen it all before. A domestic tragedy: an abused wife snaps after years of suffering within a deeply tormented marriage. Then again, as a police officer of long experience, Vogel knows it’s dangerous to rely on assumptions. As his investigations lead him in all sorts of unexpected directions, uncovering a number of shocking secrets in the dead man’s past, Vogel comes to realize that nothing about this case is as straightforward as it seems.
Vogel is about to embark on the most unusual case of his career.
Cry Darkness
​
A mind-blowing discovery. A deadly conspiracy.
Caught off-guard when she receives an unexpected phone call from an old friend she hasn't seen in 20 years, Dr Sandy Jones gives Connie Pike a polite brush-off. A few days later, she learns that Connie has been killed in an explosion at her Princeton laboratory.
Consumed by guilt, Jones heads to New Jersey, determined to find out the truth behind Connie's death - and exactly what Connie had been trying to tell her in that last anxious phone call.
But who are the shadowy figures who are never far behind Jones as she continues her quest for the truth? As she gradually uncovers evidence of a terrifying global conspiracy, Sandy begins to fear for her life - and the lives of those around her.
Deadly Dance
​
The discovery of the partially-clothed body of a teenage girl in the heart of Bristol's red light district indicates a tragic yet familiar scenario. But this marks the start of a baffling murder investigation where nothing is as it first appears. Fourteen-year-old Melanie Cooke told her mother she was visiting a school friend. Who was she really going to meet?
Detective Inspector David Vogel is led towards three very different principal protagonists, each of whom grows increasingly chilling. But are they what they seem? And is any one of them capable of murder?
A darkly complex secret lies behind Melanie's death - and its ultimate revelation will shock Vogel and his team to the core.
