The Beatrice Stubbs Series Boxset One - Marsh JJ

Truth is a wild beast.
Approach with patience and zeal, else it eludes you.

Beatrice has developed a delicate nose for lies. It gets the old hound into trouble all the time - with criminals, Scotland Yard politics and even her friends.

Battling crime by day and her own demons by night, the question remains: justice or the law?

Behind Closed Doors sees Beatrice seconded to Switzerland. Wealthy, powerful men are committing suicide. Or are they? When the same DNA is found at each scene, DI Stubbs suspects someone is dispensing a personal retribution. Beneath the chocolate and charm, Zurich hides many secrets.

In Raw Material, Beatrice is divided. Hunting a sex offender on London Underground while trying to investigate illegal activity on a Welsh beach stretches her to her limits. Her partner and neighbour decide to assist. But amateur detectives and professional criminals make a bad mix.

Time for a sabbatical in Tread Softly. A gourmet trip to the north of Spain is exactly what DI Stubbs needs. Until she meets an old acquaintance who lures her into an investigation. Beatrice is up to her neck in missing persons, murder, corruption and Rioja.

If you enjoy Kate Atkinson, Patricia Highsmith and Sue Grafton, you'll love Boxset One.

Please note the paperback boxset is an omnibus edition, i.e. three novels in one big fat fabulous book
