  Crime Novels Set in Manchester

 

 FRANK LEAN was teaching in a Manchester comprehensive when I was Principal Inspector. His Private Eye Dave Cunane makes for a good read. I wonder if he'll ever bump into Tom Caton?

VAL McDERMID's Dr Tony Hill and Kate Brannigan novels need no introduction.  She is simply up there with the best.

For really edgy Manchester based crime fiction you could always try PAUL SOUTHERN.

CHRIS SIMMS is really beginning to motor with his "...gritty, dark, psychological thrillers"
