This brand-new paperback bundle brings together Next in Line, Old Bones Lie and A Blind Eye - three consecutive instalments of Todd's bestselling Tartan Noir series. Packed with twisty plotting and authentic Scottish settings, it's a perfect gift for readers who love slow-burn procedurals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNext in Line opens with tragedy at a birthday gathering at Lamond Lodge, where TV personality Gaby Fox's world shatters when her brother Russell is shot dead. DI Clare Mackay, attending a wedding at the time - awkwardly, to her ex-boyfriend - is drawn into a web of secrets among guests who all seem to be hiding something. Old Bones Lie tests Clare's loyalty when a prison van vanishes along with two officers and a convicted jewel thief, forcing Clare to lead the case without her trusted right-hand man, DS Chris West, who is connected to one of the missing men. A Blind Eye rounds off the set with one of the series' most chilling cases: local solicitor Harry Richards is found dead in his car, throat slit, and Clare soon discovers he wasn't the upstanding man everyone believed. As a second, eerily similar death follows, Clare uncovers a disturbing pattern that may ultimately put her own life in danger. Together, these three books showcase Todd's talent for combining procedural detail with genuine heart, humour and a strong sense of place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree consecutive Detective Clare Mackay thrillers (books 5, 6 and 7) in one paperback set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAtmospheric Scottish settings around St Andrews and the Fife coastline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwisty, character-driven plots from a celebrated Tartan Noir author\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for fans of Alex Gray, Caro Ramsay and the Karen Pirie series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new condition - perfect for gifting or building a complete series collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nMarion Todd is a Scottish crime writer based in North East Fife, overlooking the River Tay.

Following Detective Inspector Clare Mackay from her debut through eight further cases, this paperback set delivers accomplished Tartan Noir storytelling: tight plotting, believable procedural detail, and a heroine readers have taken to their hearts. Ideal for devoted crime fans wanting the whole run in one go, or newcomers keen to binge a series that has sold hundreds of thousands of copies across the UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe series opens with See Them Run, in which a hit-and-run killing at a wedding celebration, marked by a chilling numbered card, pulls Clare into a case that sets the tone for the whole run. In Plain Sight raises the stakes as a baby is snatched from a crowded fun run, forcing a race against time. Lies to Tell turns to online fraud and a body linked to cybercrime, while What They Knew centres on a suspicious death during Hogmanay celebrations, unpicking small-town secrets. Next in Line escalates matters with a high-profile murder that draws in media scrutiny, and Old Bones Lie uncovers historic wrongdoing tied to a prison escape. A Blind Eye exposes a respected solicitor's hidden past, and Bridges to Burn pushes Clare into deeply personal danger as old cases resurface. The set concludes with Dead Man's Shoes, maintaining the series' hallmark blend of gritty realism and warmth. Read together, the nine novels chart Clare's growth as an officer and a person, delivering the clever misdirection and satisfying resolutions crime readers crave, wrapped in a distinctly Scottish setting that feels lived-in rather than decorative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete run of nine DI Clare Mackay novels in one paperback set, in reading order (Books 1-9).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthentic St Andrews and Fife settings bring real Scottish colour to every case.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA compelling female detective lead who develops across the series.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for fans of Ann Cleeves, Val McDermid, and other Tartan Noir writers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat value way to binge a bestselling series without waiting between instalments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMakes a thoughtful gift for any crime and mystery reader.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nMarion Todd is a Scottish crime writer, native of Dundee, now living in North-east Fife overlooking the River Tay.
