The Fawkes and Baxter series is a set of four crime thrillers set primarily in London. Detective William Fawkes (known as Wolf) and his partner Emily Baxter take on increasingly disturbing cases. The series opens with Ragdoll, where a killer creates a single corpse from the body parts of six victims and leaves it in Wolf’s apartment.

Hangman and Endgame raise the stakes with new cases that connect back to earlier events, while Wolves wraps up the main storyline. All four books were published between 2017 and 2019, making this a quick series to binge. Cole writes short chapters and fast-moving plots that keep the pages turning.
