DCI Harry Grimm

Tensions run high in the Dales when dark secrets are exposed. Can Harry and his team uncover the malicious mind intent on making sure bad deeds never go unpunished?

Christmas in Wensleydale is just around the corner, and a beautiful blanket of snow covers the fells. But then a blizzard hits, and everyone knows that a white Christmas in the Dales spells danger for farmers and remote communities. In the town of Hawes there is little festive cheer as the snow closes in, the Christmas fair is cancelled, and the generator goes missing from the market hall. Then the local food bank is broken into.

Is the body found hanging from the arches of Appersett Viaduct a case of suicide or murder? When DCI Harry Grimm is called in to investigate, he discovers a pattern of killings that is deeper and darker than anyone could have imagined. Can Harry and his team unmask the killer before the next unwitting victim is left for dead?

When Harry and Grace decide to marry in a quiet joint ceremony with Ben and Liz, they expect little more than to sign the register and share a bottle of champagne. But in Hawes, nothing important stays small for long. A stag do is arranged. Bunting is strung. The Fountain insists on catering properly. A restored Series 1 Land Rover is brought out of hiding. And somehow, a shire horse named Harry becomes part of the plan. For once, Grimm isn’t standing apart from the celebration; choosing family, community, and the life he’s built.
