Series background & context
The Long Time Dying books follow private investigators Eva Roberts and Dan Bradley as they take cases most people would rather ignore. A missing person. A suspicious death. A client with a story that does not quite add up. It rarely stays simple for long.
These mysteries lean into modern, coastal England, where the sea can hide evidence and small communities keep big secrets. Roberts and Bradley work outside the system, but they keep crossing paths with it, especially when the police need answers fast.
The partnership is the heart of the series. Eva is stubborn in the best way. Dan is the kind of ally you want when a case turns dangerous. They argue, they improvise, they make mistakes, and they keep going.
Some books are straight investigations, others feel closer to a chase. Either way, the tension tends to come from people, not gimmicks.
If you like detective duos, hard choices, and twists that come from digging into real lives, start at Out With A Bang and follow the jobs as they escalate.
