A MURDERER ON THE LOOSE.
A DETECTIVE HAUNTED BY THE PAST.
A RACE AGAINST TIME.

DCI Jonathan Walker is a senior detective with the Lancashire Constabulary, driven by a need for redemption and shadowed by a past he cannot escape.

When a body is discovered in the quiet village of Rufford, Walker cuts short his leave of absence to lead the investigation. But as the details emerge, the case begins to echo a decades-old murder — the unsolved killing of his own sister.

What begins as a routine inquiry quickly becomes something far more dangerous.

As more victims disappear and bodies surface with the same disturbing signature, Walker and his team realise they are hunting a serial killer. With time running out and another life at risk, the pressure mounts — and the case becomes deeply personal.

To stop the killer, Walker must confront the past he has spent years trying to bury — and decide how far he is willing to go, even if it means crossing the line.

The Icehouse is the gripping debut in the DCI Walker Crime Thrillers series — a British police procedural set across Lancashire and the North West of England.

Each book can be read as a standalone case, but the full story is best enjoyed in order.

Perfect for listeners who enjoy Ian Rankin, Ann Cleeves, and LJ Ross.
