Graham Hurley’s Enora Andresson series features a protagonist from outside the police world. Enora is a former actress whose career has given her a talent for observation, empathy, and reading people, skills that become relevant when circumstances pull her into criminal investigations. The six books, from Curtain Call (2019) to Lights Down (2022), use theatrical metaphors in their titles, connecting Enora’s past life on stage to her present involvement in crime.
The series runs parallel to Hurley’s Wars Within historical novels, showing him working in two genres simultaneously. Enora is a different kind of protagonist from Joe Faraday or Paul Winter: she brings an outsider’s perspective to crime and a performer’s understanding of how people present themselves versus who they actually are.
