The Complete Macrae and Silver Mysteries

Trilby-wearing burly London copper Detective Macrae believes that efficient policing means a sharp punch and covert meetings with shady characters in a Kings Cross pub. His success rate makes his superiors look so good that they’re prepared to turn a blind eye to his unorthodox methods. Macrae’s homelife is just as messy, with two bitter ex-wives and a girlfriend, Frenchy, who’s got far too many links to gangland crime. The only way to keep his head above water is to continue living up to his moniker of thief taker. Sergeant Leopold Silver is a suave rookie with a keen intelligence whose family think he’s too good for the police. He considers himself ‘damned presentable’ and always takes great care of his appearance. Much to Macrae’s disdain, he likes to delve into the mind of the killer. But he’s not above resorting to the more forceful methods if he needs to. THE SETTING Macrae and Silver operate out of the Met’s Cannon Row Station — it’s at the heart of the capital and their beat covers some of the most desirable neighbourhoods in London — including Chelsea and Westminster. But under this lurks the seedier side of city life, where ruthless crime gangs and unsavoury characters rule the dark streets and menacing alleyways. Macrae and Silver might be part of the shiny, newly reorganised Met, but the villains they must investigate continue to have no respect for the law.
