A Killing in November
by Simon Mason
☆ Shortlisted for the 2023 CWA Gold Dagger
A Killing in November by Simon Mason is a police procedural set in Oxford, the first book in series a featuring two DIs who coincidentally are both called Wilkins. Inevitably, there are echoes of Colin's Dexter Inspector Morse series (a positive, in our view), though the characters are very different.

The Best Crime Novels Set in Oxford, recommended by Cara Hunter
The city of Oxford has been a popular location for fictional murders for nearly a century, the ancient university and its beautiful buildings also lending themselves to wonderful screen adaptations. Bestselling British novelist Cara Hunter—author of the DI Fawley series and Murder in the Family—talks us through some of her favourite crime novels set in the city of dreaming spires. (If you’d like to see Cara in person, she’s speaking at two events at the Oxford Literary Festival on 16 March, 2024)
