Order of Brennan & Esposito Books
The Brennan & Esposito series by Tania Carver (the writing duo Martyn & Linda Waites) delivers gripping crime thrillers centered on Detective Inspector Philip Brennan of Colchester, Essex. Brennan finds himself partnered with psychologist Marina Esposito, though their shared history creates tension that must be overcome for their professional collaboration to succeed.
Designed as a "high concept thriller series" comparable to the works of Karin Slaughter or Tess Gerritson, the series capitalizes on Colchester's rich historical backdrop. The authors selected this ancient town—once Britain's capital—specifically because it had never served as the setting for a crime series before, despite its compelling heritage.
