As Barbara prepares to move from her flat to a new home, she takes a walk down Memory Lane and has an unexpected encounter on the way. Author’s Note: These characters do not belong to me. They belong originally to author Elizabeth George who wrote the ILM novels & to the BBC who televised a version of them. For my fic, I have placed Barbara & Tommy in an alternate universe.

He is away, she manages work without him - they miss each other. Who? We know them both too well. (Second try for this story. The first attempt did not work. Story still comes and goes. Always try to check the chapter drop-down for newest chapter.)

The plot of this fic is an alternate continuation of the second episode of the sixth season of the series called "Know Your Enemy". In it, Inspector Lynley and Sergeant Havers investigate the death of teenager Sarah Middleton.

What happens at the office Christmas party?

A piece of fluff, I had to get out of my head - hope you enjoy!

Thomas Lynley’s thoughts regarding ‘his’ sergeant.

When Barbara makes a spur-of-the-moment decision to do something crazy for New Year's Eve, has Tommy left it too late to tell her he loves her?

When Barbara is attending a routine traffic accident, she soon finds that her victim's life mirrors hers. Is it too late for her to change her future? And will a young constable be the one who helps her do it?

Framed Memories. This is another story with the Met's best Detectives away from London and with the artificial lights all out. Because sometimes all you need is nature to enlighten you. It's just a little nought.

Well, here we are, the day has come. A day well planned and eagerly awaited. There is no need to keep you in suspense about that because we all know where this story was headed to. Well, not initially when I've written "Merry Christmas", my second story ever... But now Barbara and Tommy finally tie the knot. This is the last episode of the Emerald Series, Part2.

Part of ES2 - This is a story with just a few hours of the day after Barbara's birthday. Tommy sets something straight and there also are a few developments concerning their work. (2nd chapter (index) removed)

Is there anything else to do before they could marry? Ah, their work, their list, their plans... Let's wrap it up! (Part of the Emerald Series Pt. II)

Barbara and Tommy have a date. Dinner and the New Year Ball of the Met. As the title indicates - something catastrophic happens. A small story, quickly written to start posting it in 2022.

When Tommy persuades Barbara to help guard the King's reindeer on New Year's Eve, neither could have expected it to reveal their deepest desires. Happy New Year, everyone!

When Tommy suffers a tragedy on the eve of Christmas, Barbara is determined not to let him wallow in his own misery. Will their discussions reveal their true feelings?

When the Prime Minister's son is kidnapped, Barbara makes a decision that has ramifications none of them could ever have imagined. (A bit of silly fun, not to be taken too seriously.)

When Barbara decided to walk the Cotswolds Way to clear her mind, she never dreamed it would become so complicated.

Tommy takes Barbara away for a romantic weekend. A continuation of Tunnel of Love. And NO, it will not become M-rated.

This story is alternative continuation of the episode "The Seed of Cunning" (Barbara spends her nights meeting men through a dating service). I would like to notify, that English is not my native language. My co-author Vidiadal and I are from Russia. To our big regret, this TV series is not so widely popular in Russia, that s why we have decided to share our story with English fans

Another Part of ES2. Before the two Detectives will marry, there's still her birthday. Let's see what they'll do on this special day. Maybe she'll give a garden party? Maybe he has something else on his mind?

When two women are murdered at funfairs, Lynley and his team must try to outthink the murderer before he strikes again, but will the sudden realisation of their feelings hinder their investigation?

Part of ES2 (Emerald Series, Part2) - A new Londoner arrives and things happen at New Scotland Yard that lead to a lot of questions. A few can be answered but not everything goes like it should or like they expect.

Barbara has had a hard time since the Thomson case, made worse by the absence of Lynley. Now he is back in her life, can they ever regain what they once had?

Part of the Emerald Series, part 2 (ES2) - Today they'll do what most people do before they marry. The boys and the girls are going to spend their evening separately. Of course they're not in their twenties anymore, plus Barbara is pregnant, so for tonight they've planned something nice and staid. But separately.

Well, the title says it all. Another story with a few scenes of a case (not so much a challenge for our Detectives) and a few things to be organised before a wedding. Part of ES2, like I've internally named it.
