The Dublin Murders, Books 1-6 (The Dublin Homicides #1-6)

Six gripping Irish crime mysteries set in the heart of Dublin

Detective Inspector Aidan Burke is in his fifties, divorced, and still finding his feet living alone. He’s methodical, blunt, and dislikes being pushed around by superiors — but his stubbornness sometimes blinds him to nuance.

Detective Sergeant Fiona Moore, younger and ambitious, is quick on detail, good with people, and not afraid to challenge her boss, even if it puts her career at risk. She’s saving for a modest holiday in Majorca, cares for her sister, and uses her camera to escape the pressures of the job.

Together they anchor the team at Store Street Garda station, dealing with the city’s darkest crimes.
In these six cases, Burke and Moore face murder that touches every layer of Dublin life:
•  A Deadly Dividend — A banker is beaten to death and a woman attacked in her own home. The trail leads into the murky world of finance.
•  A Fatal Liaison — A car crash near Blessington hides something far more sinister. Soon, there’s a second body.
•  The China Chapter — A man is found shot before his house is torched. The evidence points overseas, but the truth is closer to home.
•  Lethal in Small Doses — Elderly residents in Glenageary care homes are dying. Fiona suspects murder — and takes risks her boss wouldn’t.
•  Plane Dead — A passenger is poisoned mid-flight from London to Dublin. Was the killer seated just rows away?
•  Passion for Murder — A Spanish student is found dead by the canal. Her college closes ranks, and Fiona uncovers a dangerous cover-up.

David Pearson’s Dublin isn’t always tourist-friendly — it’s the airport concourses, care homes, canal towpaths, commuter estates and quiet suburban streets where everyday lives intersect with sudden violence.
