"Darren Richards opened his eyes to find himself duct-taped to a chair with a crossbow pointing at him. Behind the crossbow is a hooded figure wearing a black-faced, round-eyed gas mask. The figure tells him what Darren knows: that he stole a car, drove it recklessly while under the influence of drugs and killed a woman and her baby. His solicitor managed to get the case thrown out of court on a technicality so he has not paid for his crime. That, says the figure, cannot be allowed to happen. Darren turns to his right.

The Bone House

"From the outside, the house was unremarkable. Just one of many on an ordinary, suburban estate. But inside was a different matter. With pink ribbons and pink walls, stuffed toy animals everywhere and a dining table laid out for a tea party, it was a doll's house. The doll was sitting at the table. Life size, with blonde, pigtailed hair and rosy red cheeks, dressed in her best pink party dress. Her finger and thumb curled round the handle of a fine china teacup. An adult woman. Covered in blood. Eviscerated. Dead. In all his years on the force, DI Phil Brennan of the Major Incident Squad has never encountered a scene like it. As he investigates he uncovers more bizarre revelations and realises that he must act fast; the next murder has already been planned and the victim is close to home ... © Tania Carver 2013, 2025"

Broken Bones

"‘Definitely a white-knuckle read.’ Guardian She survived the fire. But the nightmare’s only just beginning. Marina Esposito wakes on a gravel path, dazed, bruised — and alone. Behind her, the cottage is burning. Inside: her husband, Detective Phil Brennan, unconscious. Her father-in-law, dead. Her three-year-old daughter, gone. Then her phone rings. “I have something you’ve lost,” says the voice. “Your daughter.” To get her back, Marina must do exactly as she’s told. No police. No questions. No mistakes. But the further she goes, the clearer it becomes — this is no random abduction. This is a game. One that’s been planned for years. The person pulling the strings knows Marina inside out — her fears, her guilt, and the line she swore she’d never cross again. And this time, she’ll have to cross it. A nerve-shredding British thriller for fans of Mo Hayder, Alex North, Cara Hunter and Karin Slaughter. Please note, this book was previously published as Choked.
