1. Full Dark House
This novel serves as the intriguing opener to a series that delves into the mysterious and often perilous investigations of the Peculiar Crimes Unit in London. The story masterfully intertwines two timelines: the contemporary investigation into the explosion of the unit's headquarters, and a harrowing case from the Blitz-ridden London of 1940 that set the stage for the unit's creation. Through the eyes of the unit's enduring detectives, Arthur Bryant and John May, readers are taken on a suspenseful journey that blends a historical whodunit with the complexities of a modern-day mystery, revealing dark secrets that have simmered beneath the surface for decades.
