Detective Novels

Without all that guff about the detectives private lives. Not interested in any that have their marriage, BF/GF, divorce, involvement in crime etc.

Think Vera by Ann Cleeves. I didn't like her other series for exactly those reasons. all the stuff about partners, new partners, blah blah.

Detectives that just solve crimes please. Not Christie not a fan of Poirots or the like.

And pref just normal murders, no gun shoot-outs, mad car chases and hollywood nonsense.

I've read Tana French, Jane Harper and the like. French, mixed, some ok, some just a bit silly like Likeness. Hated Broken Harbour. And of course personal life in both so wanting to avoid that.
