This is a British police
procedural series featuring Inspector Michael McKenna and is set in Wales. The author only ever wrote five titles, but
they are good ones in my opinion. 

#1. Simeon's Bride  [1995]   12 hours 30 mins, read by
Steve Hodson. 
 Set in north Wales, this first novel of the series describes the murder investigation of a woman
hanged in the woods, her decaying body found 18 months after her death. Chief inspector Michael McKenna directs the
police work, and when his pathologist unearths near Gallows Cottage the 1793 remains of another hanged woman, the locals
recall the centuries-old story of Simeon, the mad avenger of his wife's wrongful execution. Based in a coastal city in
northern Wales, Detective Chief Inspector Michael McKenna tries to solve this years-old murder, while coping with the
disintegration of his marriage. Successful at the former, McKenna finds the latter a losing proposition. 
Steve
Hodson's low, gravelly voice and measured pacing convey the depth of emotion of the taciturn detective with grace and
subtlety. The many other characters in the story also come to life, inspiring frustration, fury, humour, or compassion.
Particularly skilled at the local dialect, Hodson imparts a delightful realism to the novel's more provincial players,
allowing us to see, as well as hear them.

#2. In Guilty Night  [1996]  12 hours 32 mins,
CD, read by Christopher Kay (thanks to Telpointer)
On a freezing November night, 14-year-old Arwel Thomas,
turns up dead in a railway tunnel outside Bangor, an apparent victim of sexual abuse and a runaway from the local
children's home. DCI Michael McKenna and his colleagues are slowly drawn in to the web of relationships and power
struggles surrounding Arwel and his peers in the claustrophobic world of childcare institution, where nothing and no one
can be taken at face value and ethical structures bow to expediency and greed. McKenna must probe the underbelly of this
seamy culture in order to get at the truth, however destructive it may be. 

#3. The House of Women 
[1998]  12 hours 20 mins, read by Steve Hodson. 
When old Ned Jones is found dead in his room, the police
visit is merely routine. Detective Inspector McKenna, his day already soured by the loss of a promotion, is more
interested in the extraordinary house of women Ned inhabited: Edith, hooked on tranquillizers, floating through life;
Phoebe, her overweight, acutely intelligent teenage daughter; Mina, Phoebe's beautiful, blank faced older sister. But
when the post-mortem comes in, it's clear that it's not a natural death. Ned has died from a very rare allergy, an
allergy he was aware of. As McKenna struggles with the politics of the police force, the long awaited repainting of the
offices, and the attempts of his officers to get to grips with the high incidence of local car theft, he finds himself
increasingly drawn to the circumstances surrounding Ned's death. The investigation leads him back into the past, into
the family's history, weaving scholarship and promises of genius with themes of isolation and retribution.

#4. Unsafe Convictions  [1999]  12 hours 52 mins, read by Steve Hodson. 
When someone in the town
of Haughton batters Trisha Stanton Smith into oblivion, drenches her house in petrol, and drops a match, the obvious
suspect is her ex-husband, who abused her mercilessly throughout the marriage. Despite his unproven claim of an alibi,
Stanton Smith goes to prison for life. Detective Inspector Barry Dugdale, who investigated Trisha's murder, had his own
reasons for wanting Stanton Smith in prison. Two years later, when the alibi evidence is unexpectedly confirmed and
Stanton Smith's conviction quashed, Dugdale and two colleagues are accused of corruption, and suspended from duty.
Superintendent Michael McKenna, charged with investigating whether or not Dugdale deliberately suppressed vital
evidence, moves with his team from North Wales to the bleak Pennine landscape around Haughton. He is pursued by a
journalist on the make who took up Stanton Smith's cause; haunted by Trisha's sister, father and friends; feared by the
police; eluded by Julie Broadbent, the daughter of Haughton's most notorious prostitute; and tormented the Roman
Catholic parish priest. Unraveling lies, mischief and the patterns of love and hatred, and facing personal danger,
McKenna finally sees the truth behind its cloak of shameful secrets.

#5. Child's Play  [2001]  13
hours 52 mins, read by Christopher Kay.
Surrounded by dense, dark woodland, The Hermitage is an
exclusive girls' school on the shores of Menai Strait. On a balmy summer night, someone lures Sukie Melville into those
woods. The following day her body is pulled from the hungry water of the Strait. Superintendent Michael McKenna and his
team, struggling to find the killer, are caught in the turbulent undercurrents of school life, and the silent
conspiracies fostered by the headmistress, charismatic Freya Scott. The Hermitage girls appear to have everything, but
the aura of wealth and privilege they wear hides bitter memories, especially amongst Sukie's old friends in the elite
sixth form. As McKenna scratches the glossy surface, he unearths the vicious hidden agenda underpinning the school's
ethos. Nothing in that dangerous hot bed of passionate, brooding resentments is what it seems, and no one can be
trusted, least of all Freya Scott, to whom McKenna is recklessly attracted.
