The DCI Jones Casebook series by Kerry J. Donovan is a collection of British police procedural novels. The series started in 2013 and features DCI Jones investigating various crimes across England. Each story is a self-contained case, though the character development carries forward between books.
Several of the cases were originally published as shorter works and later expanded into fuller editions with additional character viewpoints. For example, Perfect Record was later reissued as Perfect Record / Sean Freeman, with the expanded version adding a second perspective to the original story. This pattern repeats through much of the series.
The books are grounded in realistic British police work and small-town settings. Donovan draws on procedural detail to keep the investigations believable, and the cases range from missing persons to revenge killings. Fans of traditional British crime fiction will find familiar territory here.
