What's not to like?"Amazon Reviewer, 5 StarsWhat readers say, in a nutshell:“Bruce Beckham’s DI Skelgill novels are atmospheric, “cozy-rough” British crime fiction set in the picturesque Lake District. They feature an intuitive, rebellious Cumbrian detective, Daniel Skelgill, solving intricate, standalone murders.

The brand emphasises stunning rural scenery, witty dialogue, and a focus on character dynamics over graphic violence.
