Here's a list of books in a series by Sophie Hannah, per Fantastic Fiction:

Culver Valley Crime
1. Little Face (2006)
2. Hurting Distance (2007)
aka The Truth-Teller's Lie
3. The Point of Rescue (2008)
aka The Wrong Mother
4. The Other Half Lives (2009)
aka The Dead Lie Down
5. A Room Swept White (2010)
aka The Cradle in the Grave
6. Lasting Damage (2011)
aka The Other Woman's House
7. Kind of Cruel (2012)
8. The Carrier (2013)
9. The Telling Error (2014)
aka Woman with a Secret
10. The Narrow Bed (2016)

It's absurd--who can keep the titles straight? And it's not like there's something confusing about the British titles for an American audience, or vice versa.
