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

Putting his personal feelings for newly appointed DCI Sandra McTavish aside for the moment, Carruthers focuses on leading his team on the hunt after two more victims are found, with the crimes only growing more gruesome. What is the victims’ connection to a cult in North America, which seems to be getting a stranglehold in a Scottish university? Why have these women been targeted? And who is doing the killing? As fear spreads through Castletown, Carruthers must race to stop this depraved murderer . . .
