Summary

As the first anniversary of the formation of the Kings Lake murder squad approaches, there is a problem—they've run out of murders. As a result, they are given the task of reviewing unsolved cold cases. One of these comes back to life in unexpected ways as the team try to discover the identity of the young woman whose body was found in the Norfolk countryside two decades ago. And even if they can give her a name, how can they possibly find her killer after so many years?

A twenty year old cold case challenges the team

I am loving this series more and more as it builds. A cold case makes an interesting new angle for the team. Walter’s back story continues to develop with Miriam’s family too - loved it - now on to the next (I will be gutted when this series ends!)

Another great story - but justice is needed for Waters’ fish!

Another beautifully written and narrated story. I’ve listened to all the DC Smith series and am enjoying this series just as much. I’m always impressed at how the author carries and processes the back story of the various characters so consistently across the series. So I was surprised that DS Waters’ guppies etc, which played an impact role in the previous book, have been forgotten, with the DS and Miriam talking about the fact that he has no pets. Justice is needed for these crime-fighting creatures!

Always wonderful!!

The only thing I wish is that Peter Grainger could write these quicker and that Gildart Jackson would be available to perform them!!

Great.

The third in the King's Lake series. A great storyline, perfectly written, interesting, bringing out more depth in the usual main characters. The narration was first class as usual.

Love this series

Cold case this time and no DC Smith ,just echos Of him . I enjoyed this very much . The cold case was intriguing, hope he writes more of them . Maybe DC could come out of retirement and assist on the next one . Beautifully narrated by Gildart Jackson as always .

Great Story

Great story ruined by the most appalling Welsh accent it's ever been my misfortune to hear.
Bad writing using South Walian idioms in the middle of Snowdonia where you can't get any more North Walian. We don't use "tidy". I have no idea what place name you were trying to say but you said it over and over and over pronouncing it completely wrongly I was nearly screaming at you to do your homework and use the propper language or don't use Welsh locations.
such a shame as I have thoroughly enjoyed the restvof the books in the series.

Brilliant as always

Another Lake story, of chracters you will want to know, written and read with aplomb. I have loved every one if these books and hope to be able listen to them all again sometime in the future. Thank you Mr Peter Grainger for a beautifully written and researched book about characters you want to know, (and a couple you'd like to slap!) and another twisty tale lovingly laid out and the pathways for us to follow, and for the many superlative voices of the narrator, Mr Gildart Jackson

Great writing. Wonderfully read

This writer is one of my favourites. Clever storyline and good characters. It's a bit slow to start but well worth the wait if you stick with it. The main characters grow more believable with each book. I know nothing about police procedures but this seemed very realistic to me.
