Three novels featuring Derbyshire police detectives, DC Ben Cooper and DS Diane Fry from award-winning crime writer Stephen Booth.BLACK DOG – The long, hot Peak District summer came to an end when they found Laura Vernon's body.

But the past has a way of influencing the present and before either knows it, a long-cold trail in the dead of winter has grown dangerously hot …
