About this listen

Meet Detective Inspector Drake, a seasoned officer battling crime in the unforgiving landscape of North Wales. The scenery may be beautiful, but the violence is raw, personal and never far from the surface.

A hard-edged British crime series rich in atmosphere and tension, these novels deliver authentic police procedurals where small communities hide big secrets — and murder cuts deep.

DI Drake is called to scenes that scar quiet towns and isolated villages alike: brutal killings in remote terrain, bodies left where they shouldn’t be, and crimes rooted in old feuds that refuse to stay buried. In places where everyone knows each other, silence can be as deadly as guilt.

Dark, compelling and unflinchingly realistic, the Detective Inspector Drake series is perfect for listeners who like their British crime gritty, atmospheric and stripped of easy answers.

These best-selling detective mysteries are perfect for fans of Rhys Dylan, Simon McCleave and J M Dalgliesh.
