Summary

All four books in 'Alex Warren Murder Mysteries', a tartan noir crime fiction series by Zach Abrams, now in one volume!

Made A Killing: Nobody sheds a tear when the body of Scott Stevenson, a local troublemaker, turns up with an ivory tusk driven through his torso. D.C.I. Alex Warren is tasked with bringing the killer to justice, but the case turns out to be more complicated than they expected. With the body count rising and clues few and far between, can Alex and his team close the case before more lives are lost?

A Measure of Trouble: A cold February morning in central Scotland commences with the discovery of a body, as Chief Executive Hector Mathewson is found dead within the cask room of his own distillery. With suspects aplenty and motives ranging from greed and nationalism to adultery and revenge, D.C.I. Alex Warren will need to balance his own turbulent personal life while directing the hunt for the murderer.

Written To Death: It was scarcely the first time that bestselling author Sheila Armstrong had died on stage, but it would most certainly be the last. Sheila, a member of Eastfarm Writers, has been stabbed to death on stage in a school, during a rehearsal of a play she’d written. While DCI Alex Warren works the case, his partner, DI Sandra McKinnon, is roped into investigating a series of crimes which appear to be mob-related. As the enquiries run in parallel, can they support each other and bring the perpetrators to justice?

Offender of the Faith: Just as his partner is due to give birth, DCI Alex Warren is sent to lead a difficult and sensitive investigation. After a young Asian girl is found assaulted and murdered in her home, families are brought under intense scrutiny, as Alex and his team look for answers. But can they find the killer in time?

The Field Bazaar

Arthur Conan Doyle

The Field Bazaar is a short story by Arthur Conan Doyle, first published on November 20, 1896 in a special "Bazaar Number" of The Student, a publication of the students' representative council at Edinburgh University. It is a Sherlock Holmes story, published under Conan Doyle's byline and featuring both Holmes and his partner, Dr. John Watson. It is, however, treated by most experts as a parody or pastiche not suitable for inclusion in the traditional 60-story canon of Sherlock Holmes, though there are dissenters.Watson narrates "The Field Bazaar"—which mirrors the reality of Conan Doyle's gift of the story to The Student—from a first-person perspective.The story opens with Holmes and Watson at breakfast in the sitting-room of their residence at 221B Baker Street. Holmes infers from a handful of clues that an envelope Watson is holding contains an invitation to "help in the Edinburgh University Bazaar." He then concludes, to Watson's astonishment, "that the particular help which you have been asked to give was that you should write in their album, and that you have already made up your mind that the present incident will be the subject of your article." Holmes then returns to reading his morning newspaper.
