Mick Finlay Reihenfolge der Bücher

A missing child, a distraught mother, and a killer on the loose set the stage for a brutal bloodbath in the Florida Everglades in this thrilling read, perfect for fans of Wendy Walker and Megan Goldin. When six-year-old Skye disappears from Everglades City, Noa is hesitant to return to her hometown to help with the search effort. Skye is the daughter of Noa’s ex, Zack, and Taylor, the girl he dumped her for. Going home also means facing the townspeople who have always misunderstood Noa’s medical condition, Congenital Insensitivity to Pain, and dealing with more of their ignorant comments. But returning home is just the beginning of Noa's painful journey. When her childhood friend, Jamie, is assaulted by a vagrant, Noa intervenes in a violent counterattack—and the man’s fingerprints are found near Skye’s DNA. As Noa gets closer to the truth of who kidnapped Skye, she starts to uncover secrets about her hometown that she didn’t expect. Nothing and no one are what they seem in this small Florida backwater—and any good friend can quickly become a deadly enemy.

London Society takes their problems to Sherlock Holmes. Everyone else goes to Arrowood. 'Finlay depicts a seedy, desperate London and vivid characters with considerable skill' The Times

William Arrowood returns . . .'Crackles with energy and wit' The Times South London, 1896. William Arrowood, Victorian London's less salubrious private detective, is paid a visit by Captain Moon, the owner of a pleasure steamer moored on the Thames. He complains that someone has been damaging his boat, putting his business in jeopardy. Arrowood and his trusty sidekick Barnett suspect professional jealousy, but when a string of skulls is retrieved from the river, it seems like even fouler play is afoot. It's up to Arrowood and his trusty sidekick Barnett to solve the case, before any more corpses end up in the watery depths . . . Praise for Mick Finlay: 'Another brilliant read from Mick Finlay . . . even better than Arrowood]' B.A. Paris 'Astounding ... If you crave Victorian age murder mystery, love darkly gothic atmospheres and want your detective rather tattered and torn at the edges Arrowood is your man.' SHOTS 'Enthralling' Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Zur Seite Sherlock, hier kommt Arrowood! William Arrowood ist Privatermittler. Gemeinhin wohl der Zweitbeste in ganz London – direkt nach seinem namhaften Konkurrenten aus der Baker Street 221B. Auch wenn beide ganz unterschiedliche Ansätze in der Verbrechensaufklärung haben. Dieses Mal führt Arrowoods ganz eigene Ermittlungsmethode ihn und seinen Assistenten Barnett auf der Suche nach einer vermissten jungen Frau in die düsteren Gefilde der Viktorianischen Nervenheilanstalten. Steigen Sie mit Arrowood in die Niederungen der menschlichen Psyche hinab. »William Arrowood ist keinesfalls perfekt, aber sympathisch, und die Geschichte bewegt sich rasant von Gefahr zu Gefahr und von Twist zu Twist.« The Times

Die High Society hat Holmes - alle anderen gehen zu Arrowood Privatdetektiv William Arrowood ist ein Mann vieler Talente – und einiger Laster. Die Tagelöhner und Straßenmädchen im armen South London können sich keinen besseren Detektiv leisten und kommen daher mit allen Anliegen zu ihm. Voller Verachtung und Neid blickt er über die Themse auf seinen bekannten Kollegen Sherlock Holmes und dessen betuchte Klientel. Auch Arrowoods neuester Fall scheint nicht geeignet zu sein, ihn berühmt zu machen: Eine junge Französin bittet darum, ihren verschwundenen Bruder aufzuspüren. Doch hinter dem simplen Auftrag verbergen sich weit mehr Geheimnisse und Leichen, als Arrowood für möglich hielt. Und so führen ihn seine Ermittlungen von den Tiefen der Londoner Unterwelt bis in höchste Regierungskreise … »William Arrowood ist keinesfalls perfekt, aber sympathisch, und die Geschichte bewegt sich rasant von Gefahr zu Gefahr und Twist zu Twist.« The Times »Mick Finlay gelingt mit dem Start seiner “Arrowood“-Serie eine Mischung aus Spannung, Komik und historischen Hintergründen.« WDR 4
