Are you seeking an enticing new mystery series, filled with first-rate characters, and breathtaking twists and turns?
Then meet Arnold Landon, mild-mannered history buff turned amateur sleuth.
“The skilful Mr Lewis has made Arnold Landon an unforgettable character.” New York Times
Originally published as A Wisp of Smoke.
Author Ken Andrews is never at home to callers. He has one purpose in life. His book.
But someone is determined it will never see the light of day . . .
Andrews is found dead in his own living room. His head blown to bloody smithereens.
Who will finish what the dead man started?
The publisher turns to Arnold Landon. And why wouldn’t he pick up the mantle?
Everyone tells him it’s safe. The police have their man for Andrews’ killing. But the closer Landon gets to Andrews’ chequered past, the less certain he becomes.
Could the true killer be out there still? Watching, waiting for his chance to strike again . . .
Fans of Elly Griffiths, Peter James, P.D. James, Damien Boyd, Helen H. Durrant, J.D. Kirk, Bill Kitson and Peter Robinson will devour this intriguing mystery.
What everyone is saying about the Arnold Landon mysteries:
“A pleasure to pick up.” Irish Times
“Right atmosphere of menace in this highly charged mystery.” Booklist
“This intelligent, nicely textured mystery gathers speed and races to a thrilling conclusion.” Kirkus
“Good Northern atmosphere and neatly satisfying plot.” Times Literary Supplement
“Always a good read.” Berys
THE DETECTIVE
Planning Officer Arnold Landon is inhibited and painfully aware of his lack of academic credentials. He lives in the North East of England and as self-taught archaeologist he confounds academic experts with his detailed knowledge, which involves him in a local murder. His expertise brings him promotion to the Archaeology Department where he meets frustration, which he nevertheless overcomes by making important discoveries of ancient artefacts while playing a leading role in solving local crimes. A succession of opportunities for further promotion pass him by because of his desire to remain in touch with the detailed history of sites in Northumberland and this leads to more conflict, first with his inadequate superior and then with the stunningly beautiful Karen Stannard and, later in his career, the Italian archaeologist Carmela Cacciatore.

Meet your next favourite Scottish detectives: DI Colin Anderson and DS Winifred ‘Freddie’ Costello.
In August 1992, a mother and her two young sons were brutally hacked to death in the woods behind their home. The boys were just three and one.
The neighbour, Andrew Gyle, was convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment.
Now, twenty-three years later, a sinkhole emerges in the garden of the murdered family. In the wreckage, a grisly discovery is made. It may even throw Gyle’s conviction into doubt.
Andrew Gyle always maintained his innocence. What if he really didn’t do it?
Meanwhile, Anderson is back from his leave of absence, but Costello worries he is struggling to cope. His increasingly erratic behaviour makes her think the unthinkable: can she trust her own partner?
AN ELECTRIFYING SCOTTISH THRILLER WITH A HEART-STOPPING FINALE
Fans of Ian Rankin, Val McDermid, Denise Mina, Matt Brolly, Carol Wyer, Joy Ellis, Stuart MacBride, Angela Marsons, Helen H. Durrant, JD Kirk, DS Butler and LJ Ross will love this series.
WHAT READERS ARE SAYING ABOUT RAT RUN:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “The tension mounts from the very first page and I was completely hooked on it, finding myself reading long into the night because I had to know what happened.” Damaskcat

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Another awesome performance from a fast-rising star . . . So taut, the tensions quiver on every page.” Brian
THE DETECTIVES
DI Colin Anderson: A well-qualified graduate with true Scottish grit. He’s calm, efficient and focused — despite his marriage falling apart, and the fact that he’s just a tiny bit in love with the boss’s wife.
DS Winifred “Freddie” Costello: Pithy, sometimes crabbit (as they say in Glasgow), Costello is incredibly capable, but not above pushing boundaries when needed. She’s a well-respected officer who always puts police work first. She’s had a crush on DCI McAlpine for many years now, but that doesn’t stop her getting the job done.
THE SETTING
Drizzly, grey Glasgow and its seedy backstreets along with up-and-coming new estates is the setting for this gritty series. The realities of poverty and crime are laid bare — with the underfunded police department trying to keep the damn from breaking.

MEET THE DETECTIVES
Chief Inspector Jim Ashworth is a 30-year veteran policeman with a fierce pride in his job. His position has been questioned by his boss, who insists that CID must be modernised. Despite his slightly hostile brown eyes and harsh exterior, he is a loyal and kind soul.
Detective Sergeant Holly Bedford is in her twenties. Holly is a rising star and a force to be reckoned with, as shown by her recent promotion to Detective Sergeant. Although Ashworth doesn’t agree with having women in CID he quickly finds himself warming to Holly.
THE SETTING
Bridgetown is a typical East Midlands town: its nucleus made up of thatched cottages, stone terraces and council properties surrounded by modern estates of detached homes. The busy high street is always bustling with shoppers, particularly on market day when the roads are lined with stalls of all shapes and sizes. The River Thane runs through the small town and is spanned by an impressive stone bridge with seven arches – a historical landmark from which the town derived its name.
