Overview: Unlikely hero DCI David Fyfe stars in three gruesome mysteries with twists that defy prediction.
Once a sharp and motivated inspector, Fyfe’s current lifestyle revolves around women, alcohol, and the easy way out. Past indiscretions have seen him landed with desk duty where he watches Edinburgh’s crimes from the sidelines.
But when another seemingly dull task is assigned to Fyfe at a local church, a rabbit-hole of dirty money and shadowy figures opens up before him. What follows are three high-intensity murder cases that see Fyfe lured back into the underbelly of Scotland’s crime world.
Genre: Fiction > Mystery/Thriller
1. Sleeping Dogs
Investigating crime; it’s amazing what you dig up…
David Fyfe is a dog lover with a wife and mistress to support and an ambition to retire early. His present lifestyle is complicated enough before past indiscretions come back to haunt him.
Once a gung-ho investigator of murderous criminals and violent crime, Fyfe has been taken off the frontlines and reassigned to the low-profile Fraud Squad — mistakes from years earlier conspired to condemn him to dull work that he doesn’t much enjoy.
His enforced distance from solving murders bothers him particularly at the moment, as a series of seemingly drug dealing–related murders in the city is all anyone can talk about.
When Chief Constable Sir Duncan Morrison asks him to look into the several hundred thousand dollars missing from the Catholic Church’s accounts, Fyfe expects the job to be little more than soothing the Archbishop’s worries — only to discover that things are considerably more complicated than they first appear.
As he begins his investigation into the licentious Father Byrne and the accused embezzler Father Quinn (Byrne’s superior), Fyfe begins to find evidence that link the corrupt priests to racketeering kingpin Gus Barrie…and an armed robbery that occurred nearly a decade previously.
For Fyfe himself, the spectre of the past rises with not only the reappearance of his ex-lover Sylvia, whose impending marriage throws him for a loop, but the return to British soil of the beautiful Angela — a sexy widow whose acquaintance he first made in the aftermath of the robbery ten years earlier. But this time Angela has blood on her hands and a million pounds in unmarked notes stuffed into her luggage. Any ordinary policeman would make the arrest and wrap up the inquiry. But David Fyfe is no ordinary policeman…
2. Sleeping Pretty
Fyfe was in a good mood. The world was a pleasant place. In the inside pocket of his suit jacket was his resignation letter, carefully phrased around mysterious and unspecified personal reasons. That would get them wondering… The letter was kept in an unsealed envelope so that when the moment came he could write in the date and slap it down. The moment had to be right. Meanwhile, he was enjoying his life as it was and the envelope was getting ragged around the edges.
Edinburgh’s Detective Chief Inspector David Fyfe is a middle-aged police detective with a fondness for the easy way out… So, when the opportunity arises to escape Edinburgh’s usual urban confusion for a murder-suicide in a sleepy village in the Scottish Highlands, he can’t resist.
Fyfe discovers that the case he’ll be overseeing is being led by a young female detective inspector and he promises to give her—er, the case—his full attention. Unfortunately, peppered with false leads and a growing number of murder victims, the investigation gets more dangerous by the hour, forcing DCI Fyfe and DI McBain to put business before pleasure.
3. Sleeping Partner
“Hello, stranger,” a woman said. “Remember me?”
A wealthy old widow is discovered, savagely battered, dead on her kitchen floor. DCI David Fyfe is assigned to the case, and though it seems to be open and shut—a man clutching the murder weapon was found lying unconscious in the old woman’s front porch—something doesn’t seem right.
If there’s one thing that Fyfe has learned in his rocky career in law enforcement, it’s that things are not always as they seem. Otherwise, why has Angela, a beautiful woman who was a suspect in a murder Fyfe investigated a few years ago—and who is the keeper of one of Fyfe’s big secrets—turned up again?
