Detective Kelly Porter by Rachel Lynch Book Summary

Prepare to be enthralled by the Lake District’s greatest detective. Includes all three books in the unputdownable Detective Kelly Porter series; Dark Game, Deep Fear and Dead End.

Dark Game: After a scandal forces DI Kelly Porter out of the Met, she returns home to the Lake District. Crimes in the Cumbrian constabulary tend to be minor, but Kelly begins work on a cold case that shocked the local community – the abduction and brutal murder of a 10-year-old girl. Meanwhile, Kelly is also investigating two seemingly straightforward crimes: a case involving an illegal immigrant and a robbery following the death of a local businessman. But evidence comes to light that reveals a dark and dangerous underworld lies behind the veneer of sleepy, touristy towns. As Kelly threatens to expose those with much to lose, she risks paying the ultimate price to get to the truth…

Deep Fear: DI Kelly Porter is back, but will her latest case push her beyond her limits? On a peaceful summer morning in the Lake District, a dog walker discovers a woman’s body outside the local church. She has been brutally murdered, mutilated and left with nothing but a roll of banknotes. As the death toll rises, it becomes clear this could only be the work of a dangerous mastermind unlike anything Kelly has encountered before. Can she put the pieces of the puzzle together before terror strikes even closer to home?

Dead End: When the seventh Earl of Lowesdale is found hanging from the rafters at Wasdale Hall, everyone assumes the ageing aristocrat finally had enough of chasing the glory of his youth. But the coroner finds signs of foul play and DI Kelly Porter is swept into a world where secrets and lies dominate. Meanwhile, two young hikers go missing and it’s up to Kelly to lead the search. Soon, both investigations, and Kelly’s own family secrets, lead to Wasdale Hall. It becomes more important than ever for Kelly to discover the devious truths hidden behind the walls of the Lake District’s most exclusive estate…

Don't miss this gripping crime thriller series featuring an unforgettable detective. Perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Ann Cleeves and Patricia Gibney.
