Overview
Discover why Stuart Turton has become one of the most talked-about voices in modern mystery fiction with this three-book paperback set. Each novel reinvents the whodunit in a strikingly original setting: a looping country-house murder, a storm-battered 17th-century ship bound for Amsterdam, and a fog-locked island community fighting for survival. Turton's puzzles reward careful readers with layered clues, unreliable narrators, and endings that reframe everything that came before. Whether you are new to his work or already a fan, this collection brings together three standout standalone thrillers in one satisfying paperback bundle.
About the Books
This collection gathers three inventive, self-contained mysteries that showcase the range of Stuart Turton's storytelling. In The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, a guest wakes each morning in a different body, forced to relive the same day at Blackheath House until he can identify who killed Evelyn Hardcastle and why, in a dazzling time-looping puzzle where every version of events reveals a new layer of truth and memory itself becomes a clue. The Devil and the Dark Water moves the action to 1634, aboard a ship sailing from Batavia to Amsterdam. Legendary detective Samuel Pipps is imprisoned for a crime he may not have committed, leaving his loyal bodyguard Arent Hayes to investigate ominous events and whispered curses, while the aristocrat Sara Wessel uncovers dangerous secrets of her own. The Last Murder at the End of the World closes the set with a haunting vision of survival: a small community lives on a fog-shrouded island, protected by a deadly mist, until a murder threatens to unravel the fragile order that has kept everyone alive. Across all three novels, Turton blends intricate plotting with vivid world-building, whether the setting is a grand English estate, a ship at sea, or the last inhabited corner of a ruined earth, consistently misdirecting readers fairly on the way to a satisfying reveal that rewards close attention.
