The J McNee Novels
The five McNee novels follow a private investigator from the Scottish city of Dundee. While each book can be read alone, the books build up a larger narrative as McNee faces up to the mistakes of his past and his increasingly complex connection to a local crime lord by the name of David Burns.
Originally published in the UK by independent publisher Five Leaves publications and Severn House, all five books are now available in new e-ditions and POD paperbacks published by the author and with new covers by designer JT Lindroos.
Russel is often asked if McNee will return. The answer is... he did make an appearance in the 2019 short story anthology The Book of Extraordinary Amateur Sleuth and Private Eye Stories, edited by Maxim Jakubowski
The first novel, The Good Son, has been published in Italian as L'Impicatto. Interestingly the translators gave McNee's first as John, even though in the original English, we only learn the first two letters of his first name are "Ja".
