This collection gathers seven consecutive entries in Ruth's ongoing story, as she continues to rebuild her life in Llancastell while carrying the unresolved weight of her missing ex-partner Sarah, who vanished years earlier from a London train station. Each novel presents a fresh, self-contained case, from a young couple caught in a web of abuse and deception near the Menai Bridge, to the murder of a popular rugby coach in Conwy that exposes a community's hidden lies, to a chilling discovery of dismembered remains at Lake Vyrnwy that leaves Ruth and her team with almost nothing to go on. A fatal shooting at the tourist landmark of Chirk Castle draws Ruth into another tense investigation, while further installments take her and DS Nick Evans to new settings tied to the River Seine and the North Wales coastal towns of Portmeirion and Llandudno. Throughout, McCleave balances twisty, well-clued mysteries with an ongoing emotional arc, deepening Ruth's personal history and the relationships within her investigative team. Readers who enjoy character-driven British police procedurals will find a compulsive read here, wrapped in the strong sense of place that has become the series' trademark. This ongoing continuity is part of what keeps longtime fans coming back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeven full-length DI Ruth Hunter crime thrillers in one brand-new paperback set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAtmospheric North Wales setting brings each mystery vividly to life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFast-paced police procedurals with twisty, well-clued plots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOngoing character arcs reward readers who follow the series in sequence\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat value way to catch up on multiple entries in a popular crime series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA perfect gift for fans of British detective fiction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Menai Bridge Killings — A young couple on the run become entangled in a trail of death and deception near the famous Anglesey bridge.\u003cbr\u003eThe Conway Harbour Killings — The murder of a popular rugby coach and the disappearance of a young woman expose secrets in a close-knit Conwy community.\u003cbr\u003eThe River Seine Killings — DI Ruth Hunter's investigation takes on an international dimension tied to the River Seine.\u003cbr\u003eThe Lake Vyrnwy Killings — A grim discovery of dismembered remains at the remote reservoir leaves Ruth and DS Nick Evans with few leads.\u003cbr\u003eThe Chirk Castle Killings — A fatal shooting at the historic tourist landmark of Chirk Castle draws Ruth's team into a fresh case.\u003cbr\u003eThe Portmeirion Killings — Ruth Hunter's inquiries lead her to the famously picturesque Welsh village of Portmeirion.\u003cbr\u003eThe Llandudno Pier Killings — The seaside setting of Llandudno's Victorian pier provides the backdrop for Ruth's latest case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSimon McCleave is a British crime writer best known for the DI Ruth Hunter series, set in and around Snowdonia in North Wales.
