Book Tour: The Detective Tom Robertson Series

 

 


Join Tom and his colleagues in the feel-good Detective Tom Robertson series, which combines police procedural crime fiction and murder mystery with compelling characters and a thread of humour.


Wrath of Revenge

Detective Tom Robertson Book 1

by A.G. Winkworth

Genre: Crime Thriller, Murder Mystery



Detective Sergeant Tom Robertson has left the comfort of rural Scotland for the Met.

He doesn't need to be here. His business career earned him enough money to retire at thirty and spend his days playing golf. But he has chosen to challenge himself in a big city a long way from home. He thinks he might be able to make a difference. Not through arrogance, but perhaps a naïve belief that one police officer can change the lives of those in danger or trouble. He needs to test his own resolve, and prove he isn't too gentle a soul for this sort of work.

Tom hasn't found where he belongs yet. He knows his mission isn't as a teacher, a doctor or a priest. Could it be here, in London, at Merran Road Police Station?

When a blast from the past rocks the present

The discovery of human bones in a wooded area by a golf course gives DS Tom Robertson his first case since moving to the Met. Who is the victim? Why was he buried there? And how much can Tom and his new DCI, John Walters, find out from their initial enquiries before they are off the case and the Murder Investigation Team take over?

Two further murders narrow down the search for the killer. MIT has a suspect with motive, means and opportunity. But Tom thinks they should be looking in a different direction. Can he close the case while staying out of danger?

Join Tom and his colleagues for Wrath of Revenge, the first full-length instalment in the feel-good Detective Tom Robertson series, combining police procedural crime fiction and murder mystery with compelling characters and a thread of humour.

Deadly Justice

Detective Tom Robertson Book 2



A punishment is not the end, merely the beginning.

When a young boy opens the boot of an abandoned car, he hasn’t just found one body, but lifted the lid on the chilling operation of a serial killer. And now his own family is in danger. DS Tom Robertson is drafted into the Murder Investigation Team and the evidence points one way, but is it the right way? For while the team follows the trail backwards to find previous victims, the killer is looking forwards. Can Tom hunt him down before he strikes again?

Detective Sergeant Tom Robertson has joined the Met, to challenge himself in a new environment and try to make a difference.

But someone else wants to make a difference too, and he’s playing from his own rulebook. One where the law and sanctity of life mean nothing.

Join Tom and his colleagues for Deadly Justice, the second full-length instalment in the feel-good Detective Tom Robertson series, combining police procedural crime fiction and murder mystery with compelling characters and a thread of humour.

Dangerous Reprisals

Detective Tom Robertson Book 3

 


There is blood on the streets

 

When a drug dealer is stabbed to death at the wheel of his car, a series of reprisals light the tinderbox of tensions on the Hessop Estate.

Will innocent victims get caught in the crossfire? Can MIT hunt down the killers and restore calm, or will gang warfare take over?

DS Tom Robertson’s career in the Met has started with a bang. Now he returns to the Hessop for the second time in a week. Can his knowledge of the local youngsters give him a crucial advantage in keeping them safe and bringing an end to the killing spree? But he has to be ready to adapt. For against this volatile backdrop, events take a different turn and the investigation uncovers other crimes linked to the serial killer who is already in custody.

Join Tom and his colleagues for Dangerous Reprisals, the third full-length instalment in the feel-good Detective Tom Robertson series, combining police procedural crime fiction and murder mystery with compelling characters and a thread of humour.

I have always loved reading crime fiction, from the novels of Agatha Christie and PD James, to Ian Rankin and Peter Lovesey, among many others. This genre has so many talented authors, a topic which I will explore more in my newsletters. 

I started writing the Tom Robertson series in 2020, but quickly realised I had so much to learn about writing, crime, and then actually producing the book. I am indebted to all those who have helped me along the way. 

The first book I wrote, Darkness to Light, has been reworked, and will probably be re-titled too, to become book 4 in this series. I also wrote books 5 and 6 as I honed my craft. I felt readers would benefit from Tom’s backstory, so I wrote Deadly Justice, now book 2, Murder at the Museum, and book 3, Dangerous Reprisals. Then I decided the series needed a new start, so I wrote the first book, Wrath of Revenge.

As a new independent author, I really feedback and support from you, the reader. I hope you enjoy the adventures of Tom and his colleagues and I continue to read as the series develops. Please contact me with your thoughts so far, and leave a review on Amazon.
