Trophies — David Evans

By the turn of the millennium, memories had dulled. But the discovery of a trophy case at the scene of a murder leads to the realisation that a series of attacks on women over the past twenty years had gone unconnected. DI Colin Fear is convinced there is also a link with one other notorious unsolved crime. His best friend from schooldays, journalist Spud Shaw has returned to Yorkshire and begins to probe. Working separately and together in an awkward alliance, they seek out the answers. "TROPHIES moves at a cracking pace. Full of believable, well-drawn characters in an equally believable Yorkshire setting, where that county's most notorious crime spree still impinges upon DI Fear and Spud Shaw's current investigations. First in a series by this writer to watch. Perfect for TV." Sally Spedding "I found it hard to put it down once I started. The writing style is cryptic, full of dry humour, raw and honest."
