John Milne Books Overview

Dead Birds

Now retired from the Metropolitan Police, disabled Jimmy Jenner tries his hand as a private eye, but it all starts to go wrong when the woman he is minding is killed. As he attempts to atone for his lapse, Jenner finds himself plunged into a world of international crime. From the author of TYRO, LONDON FIELDS and OUT OF THE BLUE.

Shadow Play

When Jimmy Jenner goes to the home of a former fellow policeman who he hasn’t seen for eight years, he finds an open door, a blaring stereo, and a trail of blood leading to a dead young woman.

Daddy’s Girl

Following Alive and Kicking and Dead Birds, this is a new crime novel featuring Jimmy Jenner. While on a trip to London, Jenner has been minding an American actor/author but now Jenner is in Paris trying to find the American’s daughter who has gone missing.

Alive and Kicking

Jimmy Jenner has been working as a private detective since a terrorist bomb took both his leg and his job on London’s police force. He s been hired to work on a straightforward divorce case, but the stakes are quickly raised. First someone tries to murder a man who resembles Jenner, then the subject of his divorce investigation is found dead in Epping Forest. Jenner soon realizes he s the catalyst in these events. And so he begins to question his own past, particularly the accidental death of his brother Joe, 30 years earlier. Joe was a minor criminal, a peripheral member of the circle of South London gangster, Tommy Slaughter. Was Joe s death what it seemed at the time? The answer may explain the violence now closing in on Jimmy Jenner.
