A Nice Place To Die (2022)
It's 2016 and Northern Ireland remains a province still deeply divided by years of distrust and hatred. But not all crimes are related to the troubles and Northern Ireland’s past history is the least of Detective Sergeant Ryan McBride’s problems. He has enough to worry about with his latest murder enquiry and the shocking discovery he made at the crime scene.

Blood Relations (2023)
Belfast, Northern Ireland: early spring 2017. Retired Chief Inspector Patrick Mullan is found brutally murdered in his bed. Detective Sergeant Ryan McBride and his partner Detective Sergeant Billy Lamont are called to his desolate country home to investigate. In their inquiry, they discover a man whose career with the Police Service of Northern Ireland was overshadowed by violence and corruption. Is the killer someone from Mullan’s past, or his present?
