Sinopsis

Richard Marsh's "Crime & Mystery Collection" presents an enthralling anthology of twelve thrillers and action-adventure novels, elegantly illustrated to enhance the atmospheric depth of each narrative. Drawing on the rich traditions of Gothic literature and early 20th-century crime fiction, Marsh weaves intricate plots filled with suspense and psychological intrigue. His mastery of characterization and vivid imagery transports readers into a world where the boundaries of morality are relentlessly tested, and danger lurks in every shadow.

Marsh's background in literature brings depth to his tales while his personal encounters with societal issues imbue his characters with authenticity, making his work timeless and relevant. For readers seeking gripping narratives that delve into the human psyche while captivating with adventure, Marsh'Äôs "Crime & Mystery Collection" is an essential addition to any literary library. These thrilling tales promise to engage, entertain, and provoke thought, making it a delightful exploration of the darker facets of humanity.

    Can you hear it? Can you hear his song? He is coming… 
     
    The quiet northern Swedish town of Kurrajakk is rocked when a popular teenager is found dead, mounted on a sacrificial altar, body covered in strange cuts, a crow shoved down his throat. Rumours begin to swirl. A local ghost story, Krakornås Kung, The King Of Crows, is back. 
     
    Jamie left the Violent Crimes department in Stockholm to rebuild her life. Her body. Her mind. To get away from cases like this. But Jamie can’t let injustice go unpunished – and now, she’s all out of compassion. The King may think Kurrjakk is his for the taking, but he’s never met Jamie Johansson. 
     
    As strange occurrences begin to plague the town, the residents are whipped into paranoia. Jamie and her new partner must race to unmask the King, but find themselves at the centre of a deadly game. The rules are simple – survive. But when your greatest enemy is your own mind, winning isn’t so easy…
