Summary
If you like dark and compelling crime thrillers, then you’ll love the acclaimed DCI Yorke series. Three best-selling, high-octane serial killer thrillers in one pause-resisting box set!
"An explosive and visceral debut with the most terrifying of killers. Wes Markin is a new name to watch out for in crime fiction." (best-selling crime author Stephen Booth)
Book one: One Last Prayer for the Rays
The disappearance of a young boy. An investigation paved with depravity and death. Can DCI Michael Yorke survive with his body and soul intact?
With Yorke's small town in the grip of a destructive snowstorm, the relentless detective uncovers a missing boy’s connection to a deranged family, whose history is steeped in violence. But when all seems lost, Yorke refuses to give in, and journeys deep into the heart of this sinister family for the truth.
And what he discovers there will tear his world apart.
The Rays are here. It's time to start praying.
Praise for One Last Prayer for the Rays:
"A pool of blood, an abduction, swirling blizzards, a haunting mystery, yes, Wes Markin’s One Last Prayer for the Rays has all the makings of an absorbing thriller. I recommend that you give it a go." (best-selling author Alan Gibbons)
Book two: The Repenting Serpent
A vicious serial killer slithers from the darkness, determined to resurrect the ways of a long-dead civilization.
When the ex-wife of one of DCI Michael Yorke’s closest allies is left mutilated and murdered, Yorke and his team embark on their greatest test yet. A deeply personal case that will push them to their very limits.
And as Yorke’s team are pulled further into the dark, the killer circles, preparing to strike again.
Book three: The Silence of Severance
Your wedding day should be the most unforgettable day of your life. And this is one wedding that will never be forgotten.
When a police officer’s wedding day ends in brutality and chaos, DCI Michael Yorke is pulled away from his own wedding and into the bloodiest chain of events Wiltshire has ever seen.
As a heatwave tightens its grip on Salisbury, Yorke and his team face a race against time to find the most sinister and intelligent adversary they have ever faced: Christian Severance. But as the team chase Severance into the shadows of a dark past, Yorke’s own history starts to drag itself into the present.
Can they stop Christian Severance before he achieves the unthinkable? And will Yorke survive the revelations that claw at him from the darkness?

Some the story lines appears to be fair-fect
I enjoyed the 1st 2 books but even the 2nd book became a little unbelievable.
The 3rd book continues to become more and more unbelievable, with police falling like flys.

An engaging listen
Book 1-3 in a series. Like other reviewers I really enjoyed books one and two but felt book 3 pushed the limits of credibility but not so bad that I won’t listen to the next box set!
Good narration

Not an easy listen
I’m sorry but I just did not enjoy listening to the narrator. Not relaxing. I felt I was being shouted at throughout the book. It was quite a relief to turn off the audio and just read! It should be the other way round.
The story was just too morbid with no light relief. Not an enjoyable experience!

Not for me
I love Aubrey Parsons narrations but some dubious pronunciations, Wiltshire hyperbole pronounce hyperbowl! I did persist to the end but will not read any more by this author - too gruesome and bizarre storylines. Not for me, sorry

Dark gritty crime thrillers
4⭐️
Gore score 5/5
On the surface a traditional style police procedural set in Wiltshire. It becomes anything but your regular police procedural as it soon descends into the depths of depravity and death. These books are not for the faint hearted. If you hang out on the dark side of the gore score you will love them.
I do enjoy the dark gritty goriness of the author. However I don’t like the animal abuse scenes in book #1
As the author has an over riding arc for the trilogy it’s good that they are packaged as a box set as there isn’t a totally clean ending until the last book.
They are fast paced. There is plenty going on. The characters have decent depth, they all have issues. There wasn’t any that I totally engaged with Lacey was the most interesting. I would like to see more emotional content. Book 1 is my favourite.
The narrator Aubrey Parsons I feel does an ok job with the array of voices, not so great with the female voices. He adds a good level of tension.
There’s a couple of errors, don’t know if typos or mispronunciation.
Book 1, One Last Prayer for the Rays 4.5⭐️
Book 2 The repenting Serpent 3.5⭐️
Book3 silence of Severance my least favourite 3.5⭐️
