Six compelling mysteries. One haunted detective. Gripping, atmospheric Welsh crime fiction at its finest.
In the shadow of the Black Mountains, the quiet village of Bryn Melyn harbours secrets that refuse to stay buried. Detective Inspector Winter Meadows, a thoughtful and unorthodox investigator, returns to his roots in rural Wales seeking calm — but finds himself confronting the dark corners of a community still healing from old wounds.
A woman’s traumatic memory resurfaces after a near-fatal fall. A care home becomes the scene of an icy conspiracy. Children vanish, sins of the past echo forward, and each case brings Meadows closer to truths some would kill to keep hidden.
Driven by justice and marked by empathy, Meadows must unravel webs of lies, long-held grudges, and twisted motives. With each case more chilling than the last, he walks the fine line between past and present, personal and professional — and learns that sometimes, the deepest scars are the ones you can't see.
Perfect for fans of Peter James, Joy Ellis, Elly Griffiths, Ann Cleeves, Angela Marsons, Rachel McLean, J.D. Kirk, and L.J. Ross, this compelling series delivers authentic police work, layered characters, and twist-filled cases set against the moody backdrop of rural Wales.
Meet DI Winter Meadows
Not your typical policeman. Winter Meadows is intuitive, reflective, and quietly brilliant. A former London detective who left the Met in search of peace, he now finds solace in the rhythms of the Welsh countryside — and the occasional joint to unwind. But beneath his calm exterior lies a sharp mind, a dry wit, and a fierce determination to protect the innocent. He connects with victims others overlook and spots details others miss. Meadows doesn’t chase the spotlight — but when it comes to justice, he won’t rest until the truth is uncovered.
