Meer oor hierdie e-boek

All five books in Malcolm Archibald's 'Detective Watters Mysteries', a series of crime mystery novels set in 19th century United Kingdom, now in one volume!

The Fireraisers: Dundee, Scotland, 1862. After the mill of businessman Matthew Beaumont burns down, Detective Sergeant George Watters is sent to investigate. When a mysterious man is found dead in the hold of a trade ship, George discovers a shocking connection between Beaumont and foreign powers threatening the very country. But what connects the enigmatic Beaumont to the murder and the strange events taking place in the Dundee shipyard?


The Atlantic Street Murder: Sergeant Watters and Detective Silver are sent to investigate a tangled mystery in London, involving the murder of a guardsman and the vivacious wife of an Austrian diplomat. With the help of the Irish woman Rowena, Watters trawls through the back streets of London, encounters female prize-fighters and suave cracksmen, and finds himself in the savage world of espionage. But can he find the meaning behind the mysterious words: ‘There is a storm from the east and the west’?


Murdered On The 13th: Dundee, 1860s. Sergeant George Watters and his team investigate the murder of a local banker, found dead on the 13th tee of a local golf course. Illicit prizefighters, merchants and prostitutes all seem to be connected to the murder, and even the toughest of Dundee are refusing to talk. In a case that stretches him to his limit, Watters' enquiries take him from the lowest brothels to the elite of Dundee society. But can he crack the case before more lives are lost?


The Scuttlers: When Sergeant George Watters is assigned to a scuttling case, he thinks he can solve it in a few days. Instead, he discovers a connection to a string of burglaries across Dundee. After one of Watters' informants tells him that someone from the police force is involved in the burglaries, he realizes that the mystery runs deeper than expected. Can Watters solve the case and bring the burglars, and their accomplices, to justice?


Not a Pukka Gentleman:Sergeant Watters finds himself overwhelmed with three simultaneous cases. With a case of poisoning, a series of child kidnappings and somebody with a seeming dislike to clocks and watches, Watters and his team are stretched thin. Things become even more complicated when a circus comes to Dundee, and Watters has to help raid an illegal gambling den. Fortunately, Dr. Beaton is there to help. But who is the mysterious man who crosses his path in Dundee, and why would anyone wish to kidnap boys from impoverished backgrounds?
