Book Description

"Consistently entertaining and engrossing." —That's What I'm Talking About on Deadly Shadows This new collection includes books 6—8 in The Dylan Scott Mystery series by Shirley Wells. DEADLY SHADOWS Before his dismissal from the police force, Dylan Scott worked undercover to get close to notorious drug dealer Joe Child. Now, Dylan works as a P.I.—and Child heads up a religious commune near Dawson's Clough. But after two girls go missing from the refuge, the cops need Dylan's help to find out if Child is saving souls as a cover for something more sinister. It means going back undercover—a tough gig for a detective who has recently worked some high-profile cases in Lancashire. Even on a remote farm, Dylan's in constant danger of being recognized. Still, Dylan won't rest until he finds the missing girls. But the truth may be more than this bleak northern town can handle. DEAD END Somebody is making threatening calls to private investigator Dylan Scott. A lot of dangerous people would love to see Dylan with a bullet between the eyes. The twisted trail brings Dylan face-to-face with old foes and a few new ones—and they're all keeping deadly secrets… But as he chases leads across London, his adversary is hunting down victims and drawing ever closer to his ultimate target: Dylan. Someone from Dylan's past is on a killing spree, and if he doesn't connect the dots in time, the dead end will be his. DEAD SIMPLE Private investigator Dylan Scott is struggling to come to terms with the death of his wife. He has to cope for the sake of his two children, though it's easier to blame himself for her death and take comfort in a bottle of whisky. When he hears that the man who helped him solve his first case has been killed in Dawson's Clough, Dylan vows to put all his energy into finding justice for him. Who would have a motive to kill a kind man like Simple Stevie? Stevie must have snapped a photo of the wrong person, doing something they want erased. Dylan focuses his investigation on the town's residents, but his worst fears are realized when he finds his own family in the crosshairs.
