Laura Foster is a police detective whose cases lead her into territory that goes beyond ordinary crime. Amy Cross introduced her in The Dying Streets in 2018, and across three novels Laura investigates murders and crimes that carry a supernatural edge.
Laura works the way a detective should, following leads and building cases. But the streets she patrols and the crimes she investigates carry something darker beneath the surface. The series blends police procedural elements with Cross’s horror sensibility, putting a grounded detective in situations that defy standard explanation.
The three books were all published in 2018, forming a compact series that follows Laura from The Dying Streets through The Art of Dying to Fallen Heroes. Each case pushes her further from comfortable police work and deeper into a world where the rules she trained under no longer fully apply.
