Overview
The Cal Lovett Files is a gripping Scottish crime series following true crime podcaster Cal Lovett, whose own life is shadowed by his sister's unsolved disappearance years earlier. This brand new 5-book paperback collection gathers Unsolved, Unburied, Unsound, Unknown, and Unseen, taking readers from the Scottish Highlands to remote lochside communities as Cal digs into cold cases, family secrets, and cases uncomfortably close to home. Atmospheric, twisty, and emotionally charged, this complete set is perfect for fans of tartan noir and modern psychological thrillers who want a binge-worthy new series to devour.

About the Books
Heather Critchlow's Cal Lovett Files series blends true crime podcasting with classic Scottish crime fiction, using dual timelines and cold-case investigations to unravel long-buried secrets in tight-knit Highland communities. The series opens with Unsolved, introducing Cal Lovett, a true crime podcaster whose sister vanished years earlier, and follows him as personal grief and professional curiosity collide. Unburied continues the momentum as police edge closer to answers about his sister's disappearance while Cal chases another story that hits close to home. Unsound, the third installment, finds Cal navigating the trial of the man accused of killing his sister, all while a fresh case pulls him back into the field. Unknown and Unseen extend the series further, each adding new mysteries, remote Scottish settings, and morally complicated characters to Cal's ever-expanding world. Across all five books, Critchlow draws on her own background growing up in rural Aberdeenshire and her years as a journalist to give the series an authentic, grounded feel rarely found in crime fiction. Readers consistently praise the atmospheric settings, layered characters, and the way each book stands reasonably well on its own while rewarding those who read the series in order. Together, these five paperbacks offer many hours of tense, satisfying reading for anyone who loves crime podcasts, cold cases, and slow-burn Scottish mysteries told with real emotional depth.
