The DS Aector McAvoy series is written by David Mark and is set in Hull, England. McAvoy is a detective sergeant in the Humberside Police who investigates violent crimes while trying to balance his strong moral code with the realities of police work. He is known for being physically imposing but emotionally sensitive.
The series began with Dark Winter in 2012 and has grown to 17 books. Mark’s writing captures the atmosphere of Hull and the surrounding area, with McAvoy’s Scottish background adding another layer to his character as an outsider in the community he protects.
