|title=Secrets of Death (Cooper and Fry)
|rating=4
|genre=Crime
|summary=A strange phenomenon has hit the Peak District. There are those who call it 'suicide tourism', but it's frowned on, although it does rather hit the nail on the head. There have been an number of suicides in reasonably public, but picturesque place and all the victims seems to be remarkably competent at what they've done and usually from outside the immediate area. It's almost as though they've been tutored. But whilst it's against the law to ''assist'' someone to commit suicide, what's the legal position about providing information and support? Detective Inspector Ben Cooper and his colleagues in E Division have to try and find some connection between the people who have died. But in what might almost be another world - the city of Nottingham - Detective Sergeant Diane Fry finds that a key witness in a case she's involved with has vanished.

|summary=Following the success of ''The Cinderella Murder'' case, people are lining up to be featured on Laurie Moran's successful TV show: ''Under Suspicion.'' Each episode revives a 'cold case' by returning to the scene of the crime, interviewing the friends and family of the victim and reviewing new evidence. The show has had 100% success record so far, which has resulted in an influx of potential new cases to feature. However, when a desperate mother begs Laurie to investigate the disappearance of her daughter on her wedding day, Laurie knows that her story will make great TV; especially as the scene of the 'crime' is a luxurious hotel in Florida...

|title=Box Nine
|rating=2
|genre=Crime
|summary=The wind brushed against the review like a thousand kisses and Sam knew that something out of the ordinary was happening. It wasn't since the long hot summer 1997 that he had the misfortune to read a book that had as much extraneous detail as this. He felt to himself that there was little point in actually getting to the meat of a review, when instead he could witter on about something that had little to do with anything – perhaps this would get a little annoying over 352 pages? Welcome to the world of Jack O'Connell's ''Box Nine''.
