‘Without doubt, this is one of the best detective series I have read.’ Woman’s Way Magazine
Your new addiction starts here: get hooked on the #1 bestselling series. Perfect for fans of Karin Slaughter and M.J. Arlidge.
Welcome to Edinburgh. Murder capital of Europe.
In the middle of a rock festival, a charity worker is sliced across the stomach. He dies minutes later. In a crowd of thousands, no one saw his attacker.
The following week, the body of a primary school teacher is found in a dumpster in an Edinburgh alley, strangled with her own woollen scarf.
D.I. Ava Turner and D.I. Luc Callanach have no leads and no motive – until around the city, graffitied on buildings, words appear describing each victim.
It’s only when they realise the words are being written before rather than after the murders, that they understand the killer is announcing his next victim…and the more innocent the better.

Critic reviews
‘This is a twisty, turny read that forces you to concentrate as the plot truly thickens.’ Woman’s Way
‘Fields is very good at creating an atmosphere and painting a picture with words that capture the imagination. There are plenty of twists and turns to keep the reader enthralled while the personal lives and characteristics of the central cast are tantalisingly explored over time. Perfect Remains was a good read and Fields set the bar very high for herself but if anything Perfect Prey is just as exciting, if not better.’Scotland Correspondent
Praise for Perfect Remains:
‘Must read! With nail-biting twists at every turn, [Perfect Remains] will have readers gripped from start to finish.’ Closer

‘Read it in two sittings. I literally had no choice. A fast and enthralling thriller, pitting a new, very human hero against one of the scariest psychos I've yet encountered in crime fiction.’ Sunday Times bestseller, Paul Finch
‘Without doubt, this is one of the best first detective series I have read.’ Woman’s Way Magazine
‘Genuinely chilling.’ Saga Magazine

Luc Callanach and his team have many threads to follow in this tale of the Dark Web. I seriously couldn’t put this down. The synopsis is there to read. I really liked this book.
I was worried that the new narrator would not be as good as the first book’s reader. He wasn’t as good but it wasn’t all that distracting. However, sometimes all the characters sounded the same.
Moving on to book 3 immediately.
Another great one by Helen Fields

It gave me a look into something I'm not familiar with the "dark net".

The author’s usual grizzly descriptions, you’ve been warned, balanced by engaging, complex characters

Every element that makes a police procedural gripping is here, but character development and interactions create the critical turning points. Not one character is extraneous, i.e. an extra. The plot doesn't follow a formula and it is intense. Backstory from the first book is smoothly woven into the dialogue and 3rd-person narration, so didn't irritate me (I had read that one first). The reader was one of the best I've heard: Scottish dialects, French, young American, upper crust Scotland Yard, women both old and young. Worth a credit, IMHO.
Outstanding, and nothing negative from me, but...
