Among the best for me, recently, are Tim Weaver and Angela @Angie. (There’s also, of course, Jack Slater, but they’re not necessarily serial killer ones and I am, of course, biased!)

I’ve raved on about David Mark’s DC McEvoy series for ages….. Set in and around Hull, he has managed to produce a different sort of detective and good storylines. Enjoy
