About this listen

The Dark Yorkshire Series - fast-paced crime fiction stories featuring DI Nathaniel Caslin.

The first three full-length books in this best-selling series are brought together for the first time in this great value set.

DIVIDED HOUSE

The public face. A private reality. Sometimes, the dead have a lot to hide....

DI Nathaniel Caslin’s life is a mess. He works the minimum, abuses substances to survive the day, and drinks his nights away. A once-promising career is in freefall.

Investigating the death of an ex-serviceman in police custody reveals the disappearance of a young family. No one noticed. No one seems to care. In the grip of a bitter Yorkshire winter, a family home reluctantly offers up its grisly secrets. Out on the moors, a murder scene of horrific brutality demands Caslin's focused attention. In the search for answers, is anyone who they claim to be?

Haunted by the ghosts of the past, Caslin is pushed to his limits. Will this case break him or be his path to redemption?

BLACKLIGHT

Two women are missing. One who has it all. The other has lost everything....

DI Nathaniel Caslin is in conflict with his inner demons. His career is resurgent, but the greater battle, that with his addiction, is still raging...and he is losing.

An abandoned car and a desperate call to the police lead Caslin into the heart of two families where secrets and lies are a way of life. What links the fate of an MP's granddaughter and that of a recovering drug addict working in the sex trade?

Past horrors and personal scandals tag with the present as the tension mounts. Trust in those closest to him is brought into question as Caslin pursues a deadly adversary. Lives hang in the balance and all the while, the clock is ticking....

THE DOGS IN THE STREET

A murdered family man. A young woman tortured and set on fire. A face from the past....

DI Nathaniel Caslin is stable for the first time in years. Now he can look to the future, or so he thought. Granting a small favour to a friend can often be anything but simple....

When the only link between two apparently random murders appears to be an aging Catholic priest, Caslin is thrust into a world of long-buried secrets. Drawing unwanted attention from the intelligence services, he must consider if the man he once trusted above all others is now playing by his own rules. With professional killers circling, Caslin must face uncomfortable truths about those seeking redemption. Sometimes, justice is best served from the wrong side of the law.

With the net tightening, the level of threat increases. Will Caslin, along with those closest to him, be the last victims of a forgotten conflict?

Intriguing Yorkshire thriller

Delightful, gritty down to earth policing from DI Carlin, a determined policeman with a brave heart. This set of thrillers will have you literally on the edge of your seat. I loved the northern accent and the somewhat breathless narration by Greg Patmore. I enjoyed it so much I immediately downloaded and devoured the next series; books 4 to 6.

DI Nathaniel Caslin

My first time reading/listening to this series and I’m hooked on DI Nathaniel Caslin.
He’s dry, incredibly focused, often gets himself into trouble for going off on his own and doing his own thing in pursuit of getting justice. Incredibly intuitive, with a strong ability for pulling together loose ends which invariably delivers a case that is is a lot bigger than initially expected.

Note: Please don’t be put off at first by the (actually very good) narrator. It took a while for me to adapt to his style and I nearly gave up… am very glad I didn’t because it was well worth it.
Highly Recommend this series.

A really great collection!

Some very different plot lines made this whole book really enjoyable - and it was great to have three books in one too! No extra work to download the next story etc.
Can't wait to get stuck into the next multiple book now!

Crime & Mystery

As this series progressed the storyline’s improved. I’m a firm JM Dalgeish fan now looking to start books 4-6.

Lives up to expectations!

Live the continuity of being able to follow Caslin through multiple cases. Did find I was confusing characters a bit but the story lines really kept me thinking.

Book 3

I have just finished book 3 and I feel I need to listen to it again. When Caslon discovers who the dead girl is is where I lost this story. I have no idea where the first murder fits in, who he was or why he was killed only that he discovers a secret. It may be just me but I was severely confused by the end.
That being said I enjoyed the first 2 books in the series and I will purchase the next books in the series after I re listen to book 3
