Books by Nick Oldham

Now retired, Henry Christie reluctantly agrees to join the Cold Case Unit as a civilian investigator, teaming up with the volatile DS Debbie Blackstone, who's carrying her own scars. When an old case leads them to a serial rapist, the pair find themselves confronting their demons as they unearth a deadly criminal conspiracy spanning decades.

Henry Christie is enjoying a quiet retirement, until a devastating moorland fire erupts nearby. After making a grisly discovery at an outlying farm, Henry agrees to help the police with their investigation. He is soon confronting an explosive mix of organized crime and drug turf wars which leads him back to his old hunting ground in Blackpool.

Henry Christie has never known a case like this. What he couldn't anticipate was that he would be stretched to his limit. Unexpectedly stepping into a blood-soaked turf war raging between two local crime families, Henry soon finds himself slap-bang in the middle of a violent situation where his own life is also on the line.

Sometimes the old way is the only way...When a retired East End villain is murdered by a feral street gang, his brother Ritchie Archer returns to London from Spain to investigate. With the police thwarted at every turn, Ritchie decides to take the law into his own hands and bring old school justice back to the streets of East London. Rounding up his old firm, he leads a vigilante crusade against the vicious young criminals, using every grisly method at his disposal to find and punish his brother's killers. A vicious street war follows, with no prisoners taken on either side, leading to a dramatic conclusion as the feral youths lay siege to a hospital Ritchie's firm is holed up in. They're outgunned and outnumbered, but this firm has never been outclassed yet.
