The Irish Detective: Books 1-3
(2015)(A book in the DCI Brendan Moran series)
An omnibus of novels by Scott Hunter
Crime Writers’ Association shortlisted author Scott Hunter’s first THREE novels in his popular DCI Brendan Moran crime series – all in ONE volume. ‘A really GREAT read in a genre I love – the atmospheric British murder mystery … !’
Black December
DCI Brendan Moran, world-weary veteran of 1970s Ireland, is recuperating from a near fatal car crash when a murder is reported at Charnford Abbey. The truth behind Charnford’s pact of silence threatens to expose not only the abbey’s haunted secrets, but also the spirits of Moran’s own troubled past …
Creatures Of Dust
An undercover detective goes missing and the body of a young man is found mutilated in a shop doorway. Is there a connection? Returning to work after a short convalescence, DCI Brendan Moran's suspicions are aroused when a senior officer insists on freezing Moran out and handling the investigation himself.
A second murder convinces Moran that a serial killer is on the loose but with only a few days to prove his point the disgruntled DCI can't afford to waste time. As temperatures hit the high twenties, tempers fray, and the investigation founders Moran finds himself coming back to the same question again and again: can he still trust his own judgement, or is he leading his team up a blind alley?
Death Walks Behind You
DCI Brendan Moran's last minute break in the West Country proves anything but restful as he becomes embroiled in the mysterious disappearance of an American tourist. Does the village harbour some dark and dreadful secret? The brooding presence of the old manor house and the dysfunctional de Courcy family may hold the answer but Moran soon finds that the residents of Cernham have a rather unorthodox approach to the problem of dealing with outsiders …
