Matthew Venn series

International bestselling author Ann Cleeves, of Vera and Shetland fame, both hit BBC TV shows, embarks on a gripping new Matthew Venn series set in Devon, England. Detective Matthew Venn thought he left the evangelical community of his childhood behind for good, but he finds himself back home to attend his father’s funeral in the first book in this British mystery series, The Long Call. The account of Venn’s stay, extended when a case requires him to investigate a dead body that washed ashore on a nearby beach, makes for a powerful whodunit series debut.

“Ann Cleeves is one of my favorite mystery writers.”—Louise Penny, author of the Inspector Gamache series
