A perfect gift or binge-read for crime fiction fans. About the Books This collection brings together five consecutive instalments in LJ Ross's multi-million-copy-selling DCI Ryan series, all set against the moody, atmospheric backdrop of North East England. The Infirmary is a tense prequel unfolding during a sweltering 2014 summer, as a serial killer stalks Newcastle and DCI Ryan is forced to take charge of the investigation after a fellow officer is found dead. The Moor sees a ten-year-old girl arrive claiming to have witnessed a murder, just as a travelling circus rolls into town, bringing with it acrobats, illusionists and a killer hiding in plain sight. Penshaw uncovers long-buried secrets in a quiet former mining village after an elderly man is found burned alive, forcing Ryan to confront decades of betrayal. Borderlands follows Ryan as he hopes for a quiet summer after exposing corruption within Northumbria CID, only for a woman's murder on remote army ranges to drag him back into danger. Finally, Ryan's Christmas traps Ryan and his team inside a haunted castle during a festive ghost hunt when a freak snowstorm strikes and a guest is murdered, delivering a chilling seasonal twist to the series. Together, these five novels deepen the DCI Ryan mythology while offering satisfying, self-contained mysteries that reward long-time fans and newcomers alike, all wrapped in Ross's celebrated evocation of Northumberland's wild landscapes.
