Frank Smith

A young woman’s murder leads a British detective deep into the shadows of a wealthy family’s secret past—where a killer lies in wait.
 
 It would be the height of British understatement to say that retired surgeon Charles Bromley and his step-daughter Antonia Halliday do not have the rosiest of relationships. After all, Antonia did accuse him of intentionally botching her father’s surgery so that he could marry her rich, widowed mother. Now Antonia has been found murdered on the grounds of Bromley Manor, and Charles isn’t exactly stricken with grief. He’s plenty upset, however, by the disruptions caused by DCI Neil Paget and his team as they investigate the crime.
 
 While Bromley complains to Paget’s superiors, Paget forges on with the investigation, doggedly uncovering a nest of nasty family secrets. Though he is warned to tread lightly, nothing will stop him from getting to the bottom of this perplexing case before the killer decides to tie up loose ends.

In the Shadow of Evil

A British detective must navigate an unsolvable case—and a difficult new boss—in a mystery novel that goes “a step beyond a routine procedural” (Kirkus Reviews).

Detective Chief Inspector Neil Paget isn’t happy about his new boss, Detective Superintendent Amanda Pierce. Not only did Paget consider himself in line for the job, his history with Pierce is painful and personal. But there’s no time to dredge up the past when the murder of a local photographer lands Paget the most frustrating case of his career.

Bill Travis was bound and gagged, with the letter A carved into his forehead, before being dropped fifty feet from a bridge onto the railway tracks below. Why all the fuss over a quiet, middle-aged man who, by all accounts, never disturbed anyone? With no witnesses or forensic evidence, the investigation stonewalls, building new tensions between Paget and Pierce. And when a second body shows up, Paget must find the connection between the two victims if he wants to crack the case—and keep his job.

Night Fall

When a powerful British MP calls on the police to find his son’s missing nurse, DCI Neil Paget takes on a puzzling case that may not even involve a crime.
 
 Member of Parliament Stephen Lorrimer and his wife Julia were at their wit’s end trying to care for their son Michael, who is nearly blind and cannot speak. Then they found Justine Delgado. As Michael’s live-in nurse, Justine bonded with him in a way his parents never could. But now Justine has suddenly vanished, and Michael is inconsolable.
 
 Julia is quick to report the girl’s failure to return after leaving the house for Sunday service. Detective Chief Inspector Neil Paget and his team try to piece together Justine’s movements, but find no evidence of criminal activity. While her disappearance is alarming, and a request from an MP can never be taken lightly, Paget and his team begin to wonder if they have a case at all. Then a bit of luck and a detective’s intuition uncovers a lead no one expected . . .
 
 “A brisk and unusual puzzler.” —Kirkus Reviews
