- Red Die
Mariksa Masekova and Dave Lewis are back!! Following on from DARK TIMES, this time the pair are investigating hit-and-runs during which children are killed. The cops believe they are a series of unfortunate accidents, but Dave and Mariska believe they are murders and they set out to prove it, using their newly formed Private Detective Agency, which is proving to be very difficult to turn into a profitable venture. Mariska is still a red-headed beauty, Dave is the same irrascible, bad tempered, instinctive animal he always was, and Mariska falling for the charms of the upper-class Edward Darke doesn't brighten his mood, especially when she moves out of their joint home and into an apartment he owns. And all the time the ghost of Chrissie Holland follows Dave around as he tries his best to find her a place in Heaven, where she can be happy.
- Butterfield's Hate
This is a Fourth crime investigation for Dave Lewis and Mariska Masekova. This time they are being hounded by Butterfield, a fat ex-cop, who blames Dave for getting him dismissed from the police force following the Darke Revenge investigation, and for killing his mother, who dropped to the floor dead in front of him. To help in his insane revenge plot, he garners six psychopathic teenagers to his side, he trains them to be acrobatic clowns, complete with make-up and colourful clothing, and they kill whole families for him, they kill anyone he points them at. And the final targets are Dave and Mariska, and those living in the house. With the help of some new equipment installed in the house, Dave, Mariska, Sophie, the Twins, and a fairly new resident, Linda Walk, try to head Butterfield and his clowns off, they try to save themselves from terrible, vengeful deaths. Another superb exciting crime novel from S.D. Gripton, which will grab your attention from the beginning and hold it throughout

This is the third investigation for the beautiful red-haired Mariska Masekova and the ex-cop Dave Lewis, who is still an alcoholic but who is aware of his weaknesses. They are called in to investigate the disappearance and murders of teenage girls, who are held in captivity, abused and degraded then dumped in unseeemly ways. Dave works himself to a full-stop in his efforts to discover who is responsible for the murders, helped and aided by Mariska, Sophie, and newly employed identical twins Veronica and Analaise. As well as the murders, there are corrupt City Officials to be dealt with; a middle-class man and wife who are fraudsters and possible murderers, there is conflict and pain, there are ghosts at the top of the stairs, and a final conflict full of terror and noise. Mariska and Dave are back!!
- Twin Strike
This is the Fifth and Final crime caper novel with Dave Lewis and Mariska Masekova. The novel concerns the twins, Analaise and Victoria Harcourt, who live in Dave's house and who work for Mariska in her Private Detective Agency. When they were younger, they worked for the Security Services and discovered four rogue agents who were plotting hits for gangsters for lots of cash. The twins reported them and following a shoot out, the rogue agents escaped. Since that time they have been committing murder for fun, killing for money, all their deals being made by a lawyer, Maria Tyndale, the only person in the world who knows how to contact the four rogues. They have made oaths to murder the twins in the most terrible of ways, then they threaten Mariska and her father. All this is too much for Dave, who sets a trap for the four to protect everyone who lives in his house. The novel follows the work of the rogue agents, their terrible murders, and leads to a final shoot-out inside and outside of Dave's house. A wonderfully exciting new novel from the imagination of S.D. Gripton, who is turning out to be a supreme author of crime thrillers.
