The Complete Raine & Hume Mysteries Books 1–3 (Raine and Hume #1-3)
Overview
Ex-cop turned private investigator Raine thrives on chaos, her sharp wit and reckless approach to justice often pushing boundaries. Detective Inspector Mary Hume, calm and methodical, prefers following the rules and getting things done the right way.
Together, they’re an unlikely pair — part investigative team, part sparring partners — solving crimes that bring them face-to-face with the city’s most twisted killers.
Included in this 3-book box set:
Book 1: THE SKIN CODE
Detective Mary Hume is on the trail of a vicious serial killer. A killer who leaves a baffling code carved into the skin of his victims. To crack the case, she must crack the code. And to do that, she needs the help of maverick ex-police officer Raine, who can reach places — and people — that Mary can’t. But even Raine is out of her depth this time.
Book 2: A BLOODSTAINED COAT
A broken body is found in a lift shaft in an old Victorian warehouse. The post-mortem reveals the bloodstains on the dead man’s coat belong to three different people — one is a match for Julie Cross, whose body was discovered six months earlier. Raine was hired to look for Julie, but she didn’t find her in time. Now she’s determined to find out who killed her. But who does the rest of the blood belong to?
Book 3: DEAD TOWN
True crime blogger Melissa Clarke’s investigation into London’s cold cases led her to a deadly discovery — one that got her killed. Detective Mary Hume arrives at the scene: an empty flat, a bloodstained chair, and no body. But a burner phone reveals a chilling video — Melissa tied to the chair, her throat slashed with a carving knife. On her lap, a blood-red sign reads ‘DEADTOWN’. What did Melissa uncover that made her a target — and who wanted her silenced?
