All five (including Kill Me Again) are listed as "DCI Tom Douglas #1" through to "#5" on Goodreads, and have been for a long time, which is one of the benefits of using Goodreads (plus: get yourself registered as a Librarian, and you could fix any such errors/omissions yourself).

They aren't so labelled on Amazon, though, which is common but mildly frustrating - I often find myself using Goodreads or Fantasticfiction to navigate book series, as book names on Amazon often fail to give a series name or position, or are inconsistent in doing so.

Presumably the Amazon naming issue is in the hands of the publisher (or author in the case of self-publishers). It would be good to be able more easily to find the next in a series or the first in a series having stumbled across the most recently published.

Thanks for this Stephen. We are investigating why, on Amazon, some books are included and some aren't. It's nothing that we have the power over as far as I know -unless we use it as a subtitle, which I have avoided up to now. But we definitely need to understand it better.
Thanks for the info about Goodreads too.

When you're uploading a book on to Kindle there's a box on the first page for 'series title' and 'number in series' - just did it myself this morning!

Ah! That's good to know. I don't upload them myself - it's done by my agent. So I will get them onto this! Thanks Lexie.
