Overview
This DI Ridpath Crime Thriller 6-8: 3 Books Collection Set by M J Lee brings together three of the most gripping instalments in the acclaimed Manchester-set police procedural series. Following Detective Inspector Thomas Ridpath as he juggles his role at the Coroner's Office with brutal, complex investigations, these paperback novels combine atmospheric regional detail, moral ambiguity and relentless pacing. Perfect for crime fiction fans wanting to catch up on the series or gift a bundle of unputdownable British thrillers.

About the Books
When the Evil Waits opens with the discovery of a young boy's body beside the River Mersey — no DNA, no witnesses, no leads. The case dredges up painful memories for Manchester and pushes Ridpath, freshly returned to duty after a PTSD diagnosis, to confront his own trauma while racing to stop a killer who will strike again.

When the Guilty Cry sees three embalmed hands uncovered in a derelict Victorian house, sparking a baffling inquiry that could point to gangland ritual or something far more personal. A cold case — a teenage girl missing for over a decade — resurfaces, forcing Ridpath to connect threads that shouldn't fit together, in a story that showcases M J Lee's talent for intricate, multi-layered plotting.

When the Night Ends begins with a death in custody and riots erupting across Manchester, with officials insisting no one is to blame. Tasked by the coroner with investigating before the inquest, Ridpath uncovers missing CCTV footage, contradictory witness statements and a custody sergeant with troubling links to the victim — and finds the investigation turning uncomfortably close to home.
