Three gripping police procedural thrillers in one volume starring tough, determined DI Kate Fletcher! This three-book set of British crime novels includes: Closer to Home Newly promoted DI Kate Fletcher has reluctantly returned to her hometown after a twenty-year absence and a recent divorce. The discovery of a child’s body near the estate where Kate grew up has her rushing back to Thorpe—a place of bad memories and closed mouths. Her team keeps hitting dead ends as the community is reluctant to reopen old wounds and retell old stories. But Kate’s own history refuses to stay buried. And then another child goes missing . . . Merciless Kate is called out to a freezing canal where a woman’s body is found floating in a lock. With no ID, the police struggle to piece together the details of the woman’s life. Meanwhile, in Thorpe, a daughter confesses to her father’s murder. She says she helped him escape a painful death from liver cancer, but was her role more active than she claims? Soon, the links between the two cases are inescapable and everything seems to lead back to a teenager’s disappearance years earlier. Then the main suspect vanishes . . . Bad Seed When a body is found near Doncaster’s red light district, Kate is called to the scene. The victim has an abdominal wound that looks like a Caesarean incision, leading the police to believe she may have been pregnant. But the postmortem says she wasn’t—and a second murder suggests they’re hunting a serial killer with a sinister fixation . . .
