Please recommend a detective series that DOESN'T start with a serial killer.
I can't stand stories about serial killers.
Barring that, a series that I can start at book 2 or 3 in the series, avoiding the serial killer and still able to understand the world/characters.
Thank you.
I like Ian Rankin, Marion Todd, Denise Mina, Mick Herron, Richard Osman
