DS Hutton: Books 5-8
(2022)(A book in the Detective Thomas Hutton series)
An omnibus of novels by Douglas Lindsay
THE SECOND DS HUTTON BOX SET. BLOODY, DARK AND FUNNY.
“Douglas Lindsay is someone deserving to be spoken of as a master.” SHOTS
“Lindsay is an underrated writer with an eccentric, blisteringly satirical voice.” SUNDAY EXPRESS
This second DS HUTTON BOX SET contains the next four novels in the cult Scottish noir series, as Detective Sergeant Thomas Hutton – with a new, hauntingly beautiful Estonian boss and the same old sex and alcohol problems – continues to hold himself together long enough to investigate more strange and macabre murders.
From a Covid-revenge killer inflicting the death of a thousand cuts, through the curious tale of the sociopathic model ship maker, to a trip to the snowy Highlands that soon turns deadly, and to a grotesque murder spree where Hutton begins to wonder if perhaps his sympathies might actually lie with the killer, every story is, as before, a brutal, darkly comic, sex and gore-filled thrill ride.

What Amazon reviewers have said about the Hutton series:
“The protagonist is so broken, yet such a sympathetic character, and so beautifully drawn. A massive cut above standard cop thrillers; highly recommended!”
“He is one of the most believable characters I've ever read, and although he's a miserable git, I can't help but love him.”
“Very fresh take on the police procedural, approaching from a psychological perspective - Hutton is a brilliantly damaged character, well-rounded and believably flawed.”
“The book was as good as the others; loads of laughs and laugh out loud moments, characters that are funny, the book was very well written.”
“An amazing storyteller. Douglas Lindsay is so under rated. He is much better than Ian Rankin, but beware, not for the faint hearted.”
“Douglas Lindsay's novels scare the hell out of me, especially A Plague of Crows, but they are so good that you just have to keep reading. Even if it is 2 o'clock in the morning and you have to keep checking under you bed!”
“I feel like I know Hutton personally! His cases are gritty and raw but there is still time for a little humour, making these stories closer to real life. Great stuff!”
