My Crime Novels
Police procedural novels featuring the Murder Investigation Team of detectives based in South London, where crime is pretty tough. I write how it is – and I do a lot of research although all my work is fictional.

All My Books
Each novel is carefully researched and crafted to bring you authentic police procedural stories that keep you turning the pages late into the night.

The Burning Question
When a series of women are being targeted by an arsonist, they live nowhere near each other, so the police are desperately trying to find a link. A new police recruit knows more than she dare tell, but her conscience is knocking at her. There is the usual bit of romance in this story too, and again it features DCI Paul Banham and DI Alison Grainger.

Sisterhoods
A hostage situation is setting targets the police can't negotiate with. The hostages are civilians plus two police, one badly injured. Will Banham save his life? This has been described as an edge of your seat thriller with five star reviews.

Guts for Garters
A new girl gang, the ALLEY CATS has taken control of the Aviary Estate and now they make the rules. These girls are out to make changes and keep the residents safe, and they have the ear of the police. When a murder takes place on the estate the police want information but the price of grassing to the feds around these streets is death.

Street Girls
Entertaining stuff, but not for the faint-hearted. Regan is a master of her craft with this gripping tale of street life and crime in South London.

Brotherhood of Blades
Gang warfare is rife in South London and when former gang leader Jason gets early release from prison, and secures a scholarship to dance school, it looks as though his life of crime is behind him. Then when someone from his past is found murdered and Jason is missing, the police have to ask themselves is he a potential victim or a double-crossing killer?

Dead Like Her
It seems like a straightforward case for newly promoted DCI Paul Banham and DI Alison Grainger: the murdered women all bore an uncanny resemblance to Marilyn Monroe. The enquiry involves an inexperienced but uniquely qualified member of the team, and soon unearths connections with a covert investigation into drug-running and people-trafficking.

Passion Killers
A convicted murderer is out of prison, to the horror of six women involved in his crime twenty years ago. Then, they were seedy nightclub strippers. Now, some of them have a lot to lose. Two are murdered, a red g-string stuffed in each mouth. And DI Paul Banham finds no one has a cast-iron alibi.

The Terror Within
A psychological thriller that explores the depths of human nature and the terror that can lurk within us all. A gripping tale that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Behind You!
Christmas: a time of peace and goodwill. Oh no it isn't, thinks Detective Inspector Paul Banham. Was the suspicious death at the pantomime an accident – or murder? Banham finds the theatrical glamour distinctly tarnished by rivalries, grudges and illicit liaisons; and then there's a second death. But the panto is sold out and the show must go on.
