About this deal

If you’re a fan of golden age detective stories, than mark 6 June on the calendar – it’s the date when Dean Street Press is reissuing 10 titles by much overlooked early 20th century crime novelistAlice Campbell. Alex had gone missing six years before this story is told, and five years later his corpse is found in a car wreck.

Ten seconds before their car plunged into a 90-foot ravine, Cate and Aiden Gascoigne are recorded on CCTV, laughing and joking and without a care in the world. To read more about the site or if you want a graphic to link to us, see the about page for more details. Raker finds out that there is no substance in the allegations made about Megan’s disappearance- everything was cooked.David Raker thrillers have a lot in common with most of Linwood Barclay’s and Michael Connelly’s works, Michael Marshall Smith’s “The Straw Men” and Mo Hayder’s “Gone”. There’s anther dogged missing persons investigator as protagonist in Before She Disappeared by Lisa Gardner. On the night before the funeral he restlessly roams the rooms of the family home – but instead of uncovering happy memories he finds a gun, a love letter and a Polaroid photograph of a man lying in his own blood.

Indeed, the popularity of David Raker missing persons series has already earned Tim Weaver a place in the top novel authorship scene. And with his closest ally under arrest and about to reveal some truths of his own, the danger to Raker is coming from all sides .Incredibly well-paced, with menacing, clever twists - Raker is back in this stunning read from one of the masters of the genre. The Dead Tracks is another novel by Tim Weaver that is another novel by Tim Weaver that features scenes that darkness and devilry just like Chasing The Dead.

As he continues with the investigations, he realizes that there was more to Alex’s life than met the eye. Author Daniel Sweren-Becker must have been well tuned in to the zeitgeist when he conceived Kill Show, his newly published ‘true crime’ novel, as it delves into growing critiques of the genre. It’s a book people are talking about and we’re getting pretty amped, with its release now tantalisingly close. On the night Tom Brenner and his nine-year-old son Leo visit the Seven Peaks theme park, they head straight for the ghost house.And what might the mysterious ‘dunes’, overheard by Georgia in a hurried phone conversation, have to do with it?

With the David Raker novels, Tim Weaver has carved out an area of British crime fiction uniquely his own. The other rereleases are Juggernaut, Water Weed, Spiderweb, The Murder of Caroline Bundy, Desire to Kill, Keep Away From Water!To no avail, because Tim Weaver’s rich prose, clever plotting and overwhelming sense of place hook into your synapses like a drug – meaning you just have to keep turning the pages. This is the 30th book, but considering Alex has survived "Kill Alex Cross" before, chances are he survives this one. Just like in other stories in this series, as the investigations continue, Raker finds out many shocking truths of sinister events. However, Tim Weaver’s Never Coming Back seems to be loved by many people, if its selection for the Richard and Judy Book club is anything to go by.
