Detective Elin Warner Series

An imposing, isolated hotel, high up in the Swiss Alps, is the last place Elin Warner wants to be. But she's taken time off from her job as a detective, so when she receives an invitation out of the blue to celebrate her estranged brother's recent engagement she has no choice but to accept. Arriving in the midst of a threatening storm, Elin immediately feels on edge. Though it's beautiful, something about the hotel, recently converted from an abandoned sanatorium, makes her nervous—as does her brother, Isaac.

An idyllic wellness retreat has opened on an island off the coast of Devon, promising rest and relaxation—but the island itself, known locally as Reaper's Rock, has a dark past. Once the playground of a serial killer, it's rumored to be cursed. A woman is found dead below the yoga pavilion in what seems to be a tragic fall. But DS Elin Warner soon learns that the victim wasn't a guest—she wasn't meant to be on the island at all. The longer Elin stays, the more secrets she uncovers.

Kier Templer lives her life on the road. Dubbed 'the monster's daughter' after her mother's infamous crime, she's left her hometown and twin behind. One thing still ties her to her brother - the maps she creates and sends him of the places she's been. But then she vanishes from the Portuguese national park, with no map and no trace. Detective Elin Warner arrives in the park ready to go off-grid and forget the stalker who has been shadowing her steps. When she discovers Kier's final, disturbing map, Elin can tell Kier didn't vanish by choice, but in the wilderness she has to tread carefully.
