Books 1-3 in the gripping crime thriller series

The DS Tomek Bowen Series are fast-paced crime fiction stories featuring DS Tomek Bowen. The first three full-length books in this gripping series are brought together for the first time in this great value boxset.

Books included in this collection:

DEATH’S JUSTICE:

Some secrets never wash away…

When a mutilated body is found in a Southend-on-Sea allotment, DS Tomek Bowen is drawn into a chilling investigation that mirrors the murder of his brother thirty years earlier. The victim’s dark past points to enemies seeking revenge, but when a second body is discovered, Tomek realises he’s hunting a vigilante — a serial killer delivering their own twisted justice.

DEATH’S GRIP:

He’s just met the daughter he never knew he had. Now he must save a girl he may never meet.

DS Tomek Bowen’s life has always been complicated, but his world is upended when he learns he has a thirteen-year-old daughter. Suspended from duty and struggling with the idea of fatherhood, he’s unexpectedly called back to work: a schoolgirl has been abducted after getting into a stranger’s car. Now reinstated, Tomek must navigate a volatile investigation while trying to build a relationship with the child he never expected. But as the search intensifies, one question haunts him: will he be too late for both the case and his chance at family?

DEATH’S TOUCH:

When the fog lifts one cold December morning in Essex, a nightmare emerges.

The body of 17-year-old Lily Monteith is found in a field, her murder chillingly unique — designed for her alone.

DS Tomek Bowen, juggling a demanding investigation and life as a single father, uncovers a disturbing link between Lily’s death and a string of unsolved murders from years ago. As the clock ticks, Tomek must unravel the past to stop a killer perfecting their craft. Because this time, they’re not just hunting—they’re preparing for something far worse.

Suspenseful and humorous

As the book started, I wasn’t sure that I was going to like it because I don’t like heavy suspense, I find it too anxiety provoking. BUT this series takes you close to the edge but not so close that I couldn’t stay with it, and then the journey back is quick and often funny. The narration is excellent as well.
