DI Bolam series

The Custodian

Severed fingers delivered in the post, old and tragic memories stirred… someone is stage-managing the reopening of long-forgotten cases, manipulating the victims’ families’ grief decades after their loved ones went missing. And DI Bolam, newly appointed to the town’s Serious Crimes team, finds himself in the thick of it, in a job he had never wanted, in a town that holds only sadness for him and reminders of all he has lost.

A police procedural mystery, full of twists and turns, following DI Bolam as he attempts to unravel the dark history of the town where his late wife grew up, even if it means tearing apart what remains of his own family.

"The Custodian by Nick Guthrie has everything: engaging characters, an intriguing mystery, vivid action sequences and a page-turning plot. You'll have gathered I enjoyed every page." — Heather Peck, winner of the Page Turner Award and author of the DCI Greg Geldard series.

"While reading this novel I almost became another of its victims, having passages when I found it difficult to breathe. It’s what you want from a crime thriller, a feeling of being strongly gripped, unable to prise yourself away. Nick Guthrie has the ability to keep you firmly locked to the story, anxious to reach its denouement." — Garry Kilworth, winner of the Charles Whiting Award for Historical War Literature, and the World Fantasy Award.

The Custodian is available for pre-order from Bookshop.org, Amazon, Waterstones, Kobo, and other booksellers.
