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?

Midas

Russell Andrews

New York's Hamptons are the summer playground for Wall Street big shots, Hollywood starlets, and all species of glitterati in between. But when a Middle Eastern man rigged with explosives walks into a chic restaurant and blows himself up, all that glamour is shattered. And so is the security and safety of the entire United States.
Drawn into this case is Justin Westwood, a local East End Harbor cop who is still haunted by the violent deaths of his wife and daughter years before. After meeting a beautiful woman whose hunger for human contact and comfort matches his own, he believes he is finally winning the battle with his old ghosts. Yet just as he is beginning to grasp hold of the new life he's been craving, he is saddled with this new murder investigation - one far more dangerous than any he's ever tackled.
Soon after the restaurant explosion - the first suicide bombing ever to hit U.S. shores - a small plane crashes in the middle of East End Harbor. It is initially deemed an accident but after the pilot's body disappears, as do all traces of his identification, Justin realizes he's dealing with sabotage. When more terrorist strikes occur, each more devastating than the last, Justin also begins to understand that they all share an elusive, undeniable link - one that will plunge him into a terrifying journey leading to some of the country's most powerful figures and their darkest, most closely held secrets. If he is to survive, Justin must wend his way through a complicated maze of corruption and confront startling truths about big business and politics and, most of all, about himself.
For a long time, Justin Westwood has wondered if he could ever truly be frightened again, or if anything could reclaim his soul. Some part of him hoped it was possible. He is about to get his wish...
