DI Mariner #1-7
Detective Tom Mariner Books 1–7
In this 7-book box set:
BOOK 1: DEADLY LIES
Journalist Eddie Barham is found dead in his home. A syringe in his arm and a note by his side reading, ‘No More.’
Open and shut case of suicide? Not for DI Mariner. Hours before, he saw Barham picking up a prostitute in a bar. Mariner discovers Barham's younger brother, Jamie, hiding in a cupboard under the stairs.
BOOK 2: INNOCENT LIES
Two teenagers go missing on the same day. Just a coincidence? They are from very different backgrounds: Yasmin is the talented, grammar-school-educated daughter of devout Muslim professionals. Ricky disappears after storming out of his council house after an argument with his mum’s latest boyfriend.
BOOK 3: KILLER LIES
First, a badly decomposed body of a young woman is found in a Birmingham sewer. The police can’t identify her and dub her “Madeleine.” Then an important politician and his wife are shot on an isolated road. “Vengeance is mine” is scrawled in blood at the scene. And finally, a bomb explosion in the busy city kills five people, causing chaos and panic.
BOOK 4: BABY LIES
Six-week-old baby Jessica is abducted from a local nursery. And Detective Tom Mariner realises he’s not going to get the time-off he was hoping for. The police get a good description of the woman who took Jessica, but the appeal to the public doesn’t generate a single lead. Then the kidnapper calls demanding money for Jessica’s safe return . . . and a terrible discovery is made in the woods.
BOOK 5: MARRIED LIES
Lucy Jarrett is terrified. Someone is watching her every move, following her home from work and making threatening phone calls. But her husband doesn’t believe her and no one else is listening. Lucy’s married life is proving anything but blissful. Her musician husband is perpetually away on tour and doesn’t want to start a family.
BOOK 6: BURIED LIES
Detective Inspector Tom Mariner goes to the beautiful Welsh countryside to recover. But he finds himself caught up in a murder investigation . . . and he’s the prime suspect.
BOOK 7: MISSING LIES
18-year-old Grace Clifton vanishes on her way home from work. Amazingly, not a single witness comes forward. But Detective Tom Mariner suspects that she ran away from her overbearing, rich father. A package arrives at the police station. It contains Grace’s clothes, neatly folded and cleaned. Then another woman disappears . . .

Absolutely brilliant, devastated now I've finished the series.I want more!
Each book has just enough characterisation s to build a picture. But doesn't focus too much on the cast, and doesn't repeat a lot in every book. Very fast paced, plenty of twists, clues and drama to keep the pages turning. I could read another 7 and still not get tired of Mariner. A great read, you won't be disappointed

These are not very well done. I'm a big detective fiction fan and the author is clearly very inexperienced in actual police work and detection. Every single policeman in this story continually rejects every single clue as not likely. That is the exact opposite of how the police work. Every clue is considered important and tracked down until they decide whether or not it's important. Nobody jumps to conclusions in advance– at least nobody who's the least bit successful. Furthermore, while the plots are interesting, she's incapable of producing an ending that has any satisfaction in it. After a bunch of very complex stuff happens in book 2, they discover that the perpetrator is somebody nobody was thinking about and all they do is basically announce who it was, his confession, and the book ends. We never find out how the parents feel about it -- we never find out what the consequences are -- nothing. It's like what the heck happened? Not well written at all.
The following is a spoiler. One of the things that struck me most about this book is that a vulnerable, at-risk teen with prominent parents goes missing and it is almost certainly foul play, but it is not treated with any urgency. It's quite disgraceful in fact. No reason is given for them taking weekends off and taking the night off and so forth. The life of the child is far more important than them getting rest, and while they do take shifts and so on, the way they behaved in this book is utterly unlike reality. In reality the statistics are if you don't find them in the first 24 hours they're probably dead and everybody knocks themselves out to find them in the first 24 hours for that reason. This book has everybody sitting around doing nothing much, which is not how you react to a missing child.
Very interestingly, and this is also a spoiler, in another volume in the series a baby goes missing and they implement the protocol that I was waiting to see for the at risk teenager. I believe it was very much an error to make a distinction between the reaction to one versus the other. Both reactions should've been identical.
In general, the main character is a putz and seems not very bright. He seems to be very insensitive to people's thoughts and feelings and often asks and says really embarrassing and ridiculous things. Like he's totally clueless. The author's approach to plotting, as mentioned, includes stopping every investigation before it can start because everybody is dubious about every single clue. It's just the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen. I get annoyed by plots that are moved forward by convenient accidents or the utter stupidity of the main character and in this case we have the bullheadedness of the entire police force refusing to believe anything that they get in the way of a clue, which is utterly ridiculous. At least it's a new method of moving a plot forward -- through sheer negativity and stupidity.
This comment refers to yet another volume in this grouping: just an FYI to the author. If some guy goes in his shed and pulls out a really old gun -- he's not gonna be able to screw a silencer on it. And they're actually called suppressors, but whatever. You have to have your gun pre-prepared to fit a silencer by having it machined so that you can screw the silencer on. Regular guns don't come with the screw grooves already on them so you can just screw it in. That is not a thing. Therefore it is extremely unlikely your character was able to reach into his 20 year-old shed and pull out a gun already ready for a silencer - especially in England where guns, and especially silenced ones, are much less easily acquired than the United States.
I also don't like the way the main character continually corrects people with non sequiturs. Like they're talking about some dreadful thing that somebody is experiencing and he'll try to argue that it's not dreadful because of some minor detail that's clearly not relevant and clearly has nothing to do with what's going on. He never said this but a good example of that kind of cluelessness is when somebody says so and so is gay and another person pipes up but that's impossible he's married. It's an obviously stupid statement to make. Those are the kinds of statements he makes all the time.It's all in alignment with this nonsense of debating every clue and denying its value until the last possible moment. That is also not a thing.
I am a strong proponent of John Sandford's belief that romance and detective novels should not intersect. The romance is usually a distraction and it does not lend anything to the plotting, does nothing to move anything forward, and it's a huge annoyance to people who are trying to read detective fiction, not a romance novel. There's an unproven belief that you have to have some romance in every novel, every movie, every everything, and it's utterly ridiculous. It's simply annoying.
Another very annoying element of all of these novels is the fact that DCI mariner constantly turns his phone off for no apparent reason. No other human being on earth in the late 20 teens would ever do that and especially not a cop who is working on too hot cases but nonetheless he's always turning his phone off so some big surprise can happen without his knowledge. It's a terrible way to move the plot forward. It's basically using your character's stupidity to move your plot forward and none of us are interested in reading about stupid characters. It's so annoying there are no words.

Among the best!
I was so pleased with the Tom Mariner series, I almost left a purely glowing review after finishing the first book. Chris Follett really knows her stuff! Her books are a joy to read, because the numerous errors you find in other books, such as misspelling, bad grammar, and thesaurus abuse, just don't show up.
After reading all seven in this series, I did encounter a couple of mistakes. These were so obvious to me I was surprised they made it past the editing process. In one book, a main character drives to the nursery to drop off her baby. Then the car never appears again, and the character and her husband are driven around by the police.
In another, Tom Mariner is asked to buy some eggs, but then the eggs disappear. There is a later mention that Tom bought the eggs, but even the person who made the request fails to mention what happened to them.
So that's why I could only give the series four stars. It's otherwise a great series, well worth reading!

Unsung heroes
I enjoyed the Chris Collett "Tom Mariner " series. Mariner is a man's man. In the first few books he is a Midlands DI and gets involved in a case that allows him to become involved with Anna Barham and her brothers Eddie & Jamie. Eddie then dies and Mariner becomes involved in the investigation into Eddie's death. As a result he falls into a relationship with Anna. The stories develop and along with investigating Eddie's death he and his side kick Tony Knox become involved in investigating a number of deaths which seem to have links. As the stories progress so does Tony's relationship with Anna. He falls hopelessly in love with her and helps to manage the care for he brother Jamie who is autistic. I won't spoil the stories that develop towards the end of the series but know you will enjoy them and for sure I think will understand my review title. Great read, easy to read and very enjoyable.

Loved this series. I hope he writes more. I like the book bundles as I read a few hours every day so I get through the books fairly quickly. If you like the genre of mystery featuring detectives then this is a good choice for you. The characters develop and intertwine with each other and the reader gets attached to them. The stories are scripted well and keep you interested and moving to find out more. Some romance is good but not to take over the main genre of mystery. The setting is different for an Aussie as well. It is almost as good as travel especially now when that is not possible in a global pandemic. Overall, it is a great series which I thoroughly enjoyed.
June 26, 2021
Great series, Really wanted more even after reading these seven books. And value !!! WOW. 99p for seven superb reads. DI Tom Mariner is not an 'up and at 'em' kind of cop but more of a thinker and takes his time to come to the right conclusion. There is a timeline on the books so the more you get into the series, the more relevant info from the previous books comes about, so read them in order. Each book though has a stand alone story with references made to previous characters and actions. Easy going reading with only the odd occasion requiring the dictionary explanation and just great storylines. First class stuff.

If the length of time I took to read these books seems to indicate I didn't enjoy them, it doesn't! I limited myself to only reading one between several other books, but I could have quite happily read all 7 one after the other. I like the principal character, he is rather flawed, not the usual perfect man that appears in so many novels. The more I read the better I liked them, I have now downloaded another book by the same author, hopefully it will be just as good. I like a story with twists and turns and gives me no clue as to who the villain(s) might be, the Tom Mariner books certainly didn't disappoint.

Excellent
The 1st story from my point of view was quite difficult to get into, but perseverance paid of. Story 2 had me totally hooked and I struggled to put the kindle down. Loved the way the storylines followed on and the way the characters developed. The usual twist and turns had me double guessing myself. I will look out for more by Chris Collett and D.C.I . Marriner again. Well done 7 wonderful stories. T.V. people should be looking to make a series. I will definitely recommend this set of books to my friends.

The first book was good but the main plot of the second book quickly degenerated into something about "Islamophobia"... I read detective fiction to escape from depressing political and social problems. If you like that kind of "ripped from the headlines" content maybe this will suit you. I paid $0.99 for the whole series and I suppose the first book was worth that. But I am not interested in reading any more of it.

Detective Tom Mariner
incredibly good reading character development is great you can’t wait to know what’s going to happened great story Line with unsettling twists and turns and challenging issues
No short cuts with it’s a plot you really feel for these characters and what they go through it’s a nice touch so much time and effort has been built into the private lives of all the characters so you have more than one story line going at any one time

Magnificent - A Work Of Art.
Well written in good old fashioned English and grammatically correct throughout.
The lead character is a well well drawn person, and following his life through this collection of stories makes it difficult to put down. A most enjoyable collection of well told tales, and a British police procedural collection at its best.

Good solid stories
These books are quite addictive, the stories are believable and the characters are endearing. Tom Mariner is a complex man with many flaws but the background story about his life make it understandable. I have loved the development of his team and their dogged determination to solve their cases.
Hope that this isn't the end for them

Really Good British Detective Series
I was going to read one of the books and when I finished it it was so interesting that I went back and completed the entire series. I enjoyed the sites that are explained and explored almost makes you feel like you have been there when you have finished the books.

Tom Mariner Detective Inspector
Each of these seven books read a bit differently, but all starred an inspector who won't give up and who can't seem to be foiled by any bad guys. As I have said many times before, I hate when someone hurts women, children, or any child, boy or girl. I loved the way he found time to take care of the sweetie who calls him " Spectre Man" Jackfire

So glad I found this author
I really enjoyed this marathon read. I wish I had discovered this author before. The storyline are very good and original. The characters are realistic and far from perfect - particularly Mariner. It was refreshing to have the main character have a number of flaws and at times frustrated rather than the usual 'superhero '. An excellent read.

A really great series of murder mysteries during which the character continue to develop without having to go back over previous episodes. Each of these seven tales are ste goodenough to be stand alone novels. Really enjoyable reading. While it did take me 4 months to read the series, that is purely because I read several other books between each installment.

Great read!
The stories move along at a good pace , moving along in a logical manner. You really get to know the main characters and the the side characters are fully flushed out. I read straight through books 1-7 and can t wait for more!

I really enjoyed these books. I liked the way that all of the characters developed throughout the books. They are not just crime novels but contained observations on different characters. I'm looking forward to reading book 8 and beyond.

Gripping.
The story lines pulled you in, sometimes you could guess who done it and sometimes it was someone who you would never guess.
I liked the characters and living their private & work life and also knowing that they are human too.

Tom Mariner detective
I really enjoyed these books. Tom Mariner is a very believable, normal guy who happens to be a great detective. I think I got used to his ways, felt sorry for him and hoped his future would eventually be a happier one.
