From a beauty spot murder to a body pulled from Poole Harbour, each brand new paperback delivers twisting cases, close-knit communities, and long-buried family secrets.

About the Books
This four-book paperback collection continues Rachel McLean's Dorset Crime series, as DCI Lesley Clarke settles into her new command at Dorset Police HQ while facing fallout from her own complicated past, including the unresolved murder of her predecessor, DCI Mackie, and the personal cost of her demanding career.
The Blue Pool Murders opens with the death of a local crime boss at a Dorset beauty spot, forcing Lesley to look within his own circle for a killer. In The Lighthouse Murders, a body found at the remote Portland Bill lighthouse ties back to a case Lesley worked before moving to Dorset. The Ghost Village Murders raises the stakes as the hunt for Mackie's killer collides with a fresh murder in the abandoned village of Tyneham. Finally, The Poole Harbour Murders sees Lesley managing two teams as a harbor body reveals a decades-old disappearance.
Together, these four novels showcase McLean's talent for layering cold cases and present-day violence into twist-filled plots, with Dorset's coastal towns, harbors, and villages providing a moody, atmospheric backdrop and Lesley Clarke emerging as a compelling, determined lead.
