Synopses

The Snowdonia Killings

DI Ruth Hunter has barely begun her new post at North Wales Police Force when she is called to a brutal scene. A local teacher has been attacked and her body carved with strange symbols, and a second death follows soon after. As the hunt for a serial killer escalates, Ruth’s difficulty moving on from her partner’s unresolved disappearance risks pushing her into a costly error.

The Harlech Beach Killings

A businessman’s body is found washed up on a secluded North Wales beach, and Ruth is determined to identify the killer quickly. As she examines the dead millionaire’s affairs, she uncovers a connection to an infamous Liverpudlian drug lord. With botched raids, uncooperative suspects and a series of cold case murders, Ruth begins to suspect the criminal is being protected by corrupt insiders.

The Dee Valley Killings

Hoping that life in Snowdonia will help ease her grief, Ruth throws herself into work. A missing persons case raises doubts from the outset, and the discovery of a man’s body torn to pieces confirms a far more dangerous threat. Working alongside her fiercely patriotic Welsh partner, Ruth closes in on a prime suspect who seems to stay a step ahead.
