|title=Fatal Pursuit: A Bruno Courreges Investigation
|rating=4
|genre=Crime
|summary=Two young racing drivers come to the Perigord region to hunt for clues as to the whereabouts of the missing Bugatti Type 57c Atlantic. Only four were made and three are accounted for - but stories would have it that the missing car is somewhere in the Perigord. It's more than seventy years since the car was last seen and that was in war time - but it's worth finding: a Californian museum paid $37,000,000 for one of the cars. One of the young racing drivers has local connections and another is in a relationship with Annette, a magistrate. The race to find the car is not going to be kind.

|summary=Anita Sundstrom wasn't best pleased when she was told to look into the disappearance of British heir hunter Graeme Todd: missing persons weren't really her thing and it seemed that it was only down to her because she was fluent in English. There was a similar reluctance when her ex-husband asked her to look into the disappearance of his girlfriend. But events took a sinister turn and Anita found herself deeply entangled in both cases. The first case seemed to be linked to a robbery which took place in Newcastle some twenty years earlier and in the second case it seemed that Bjorn Sundstrom hadn't been entirely truthful with her about his relationship with Greta Jansson.

|title= The Killing of Polly Carter
|rating= 4
|genre= Crime
|summary=I'm a fan of old-school murder mysteries…think [[:Category:Agatha Christie|Agatha Christie]], think [[:Category:Margery Allingham|Margery Allingham]], Dorothy Sayers… These are stories as games. Usually on the very edge of plausibility, gruesomeness kept to a minimum, police procedure trodden all over in hobnailed enthusiasm of insight and flashes of inspiration. So it follows that I enjoy TV series in the same vein: Midsommer Murders, Poirot… and Death in Paradise. It was because my enjoyment of the series was known that ''The Killing of Polly Carter'' was sent my way.
