This three-book paperback collection follows Detective Matthew Venn as he untangles dark, character-driven mysteries in the coastal towns where the rivers Taw and Torridge meet the sea. Combining emotional depth, intricate plotting and richly drawn communities, this set is an essential addition for any crime fiction lover's shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe series begins with \u003ci\u003eThe Long Call\u003c\/i\u003e, in which Matthew Venn returns to Barnstaple for his estranged father's funeral, only to be pulled into investigating a murder nearby. Venn's complicated history with the evangelical community he left behind adds personal tension as old secrets resurface. In \u003ci\u003eThe Heron's Cry\u003c\/i\u003e, a respected local doctor is found dead in an artists' colony, killed with a shard of glass from his daughter's studio. As Venn and his team dig deeper, they uncover resentment, ambition and hidden grief running through the tight-knit creative community, with the case striking close to home. The trilogy closes with \u003ci\u003eThe Raging Storm\u003c\/i\u003e, where the death of a charismatic local sailor during a violent storm exposes long-buried secrets in a small coastal town torn between reverence for a local legend and quiet resentment. Across all three novels, Cleeves combines atmospheric settings with psychologically complex characters, delivering mysteries as much about people and place as about solving a crime. Readers who enjoyed her Vera Stanhope and Shetland series will recognise the same patient, immersive storytelling, elevated by Venn's compelling personal journey as a gay detective navigating his past in a community that shaped him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten by Ann Cleeves, the award-winning author behind the Vera and Shetland series.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree full-length paperback novels in one collection, ideal value for crime fiction fans.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAtmospheric North Devon setting brings a fresh, distinctive backdrop to the detective genre.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharacter-driven mysteries with emotional depth, perfect for readers who love slow-burn suspense.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new paperback copies, great as a gift or a treat for yourself.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAnn Cleeves is one of the UK's most acclaimed crime writers, best known for creating the Vera Stanhope and Shetland series, both adapted into hit television dramas.
