The Robert Finlay series by Matt Johnson is a thriller trilogy following a former soldier turned police officer. Wicked Game (2012) introduced the character, with Deadly Game (2015) and End Game (2018) completing the arc. The “Game” naming pattern ties all three titles together.
The six-year span of the trilogy gave each book time to stand on its own while building toward the concluding End Game. The series draws on themes of military service, policing, and the personal costs of both.
