No Cure For Regret
A missing baby. A desperate woman on the run. A truth nobody wants uncovered.
A newborn is taken from a locked house in Edinburgh. No ransom. No witnesses. Just an empty cot and parents with power to burn.
DI Sam Winter is called into the abduction of nine-week-old Kai Drummond, taken while his wealthy parents were out celebrating the launch of their high-profile charity foundation. The family want results fast, the press want blood and the politicians circling the Drummonds want the story buried.
The abductor is already moving, changing her appearance, gambling everything on a plan she can’t afford to get wrong. Because the truth nobody wants to say out loud is the most dangerous one.
As Winter races the clock across Scotland, the case cracks open old grief, addiction and a family history built on money and secrets. And with every mile Kai is taken further from home, the chances of bringing him back alive get thinner.
His Wild Blood
A young woman. A bath full of chlorine. A killer who knew exactly what they were doing.
When Brooke Trotter is found dead in her family home in Jedburgh, DCI Rob Marshall arrives to find a crime scene that has been methodically erased. No prints. No DNA. No obvious motive. Just a twenty-year-old student who worked at the local jail museum, a town full of festival strangers and a killer who understood forensics well enough to almost disappear completely.
Almost.
As Marshall digs into Brooke’s life, he finds connections that reach far beyond the Borders – and a darkness with roots he never anticipated.
Connor Dyer makes YouTube videos about Borders history. He’s charming on camera and methodical off it, as he watches Janie, his stepsister, go about his life. While Marshall works the case from the outside in, Connor moves through the same small towns, the same festivals, the same streets, hiding in plain sight and running out of reasons to wait.
Who is the killer forensics almost couldn’t find? What does a convicted serial killer have to do with a murder in a quiet Borders town? And how far will a man go to silence the person he should have protected most
