The Constable Molly Smith series is set in the fictional town of Trafalgar, British Columbia, a small mountain community where serious crimes still find a way in. Molly Smith is a young constable navigating both the demands of police work and the complications of living in a tight-knit town where everyone knows her family. The first book, In the Shadow of the Glacier, was published in 2007.
With eight books in the series, Delany develops Molly and the supporting cast in detail over time. The novels tackle issues like drug trafficking, cold cases, and community tensions, giving the series a more serious tone than Delany’s cozy work. Readers who enjoy character-driven police fiction with strong sense of place will find a lot to like here.
