The DS Regan Carter series is Andrew Barrett’s newest crime fiction venture, following a detective sergeant through cases in Yorkshire. Four books published in 2024-2025 — A Random Kill, The Dark Arches, Cutting Ties, and The Colour of Fury — establish a new series alongside Barrett’s established Eddie Collins franchise.

The shift from CSI to detective gives Barrett a different angle on criminal investigation. While Collins works the evidence at crime scenes, Carter pursues suspects and builds cases from the detective side of the equation.
