Summary
If only Alexandra Cupidi had turned south instead of north, she would have found the dead woman.
Instead it is her vulnerable daughter Zoë who stumbles across Mimi Greene's lifeless body on the shoreline. A regular wild swimmer with a group of close friends, it's out of character for Mimi to have been swimming alone, especially in bad weather. DS Cupidi starts to suspect this is more than just an accidental drowning.
Meanwhile, her friend and colleague Jill Ferriter receives a mysterious letter from a man who claims to be her father. Stephen Dowles has been in prison for the last twenty years, convicted of two brutal and senseless murders.
With Cupidi obsessed by the death of Mimi Greene, Ferriter must lean on Bill South to uncover the facts around Dowles' conviction, revisiting old colleagues and criminals.
The Wild Swimmers is an explosive return to the DS Alexandra Cupidi Series, where the shores of the south Kent coastline expose deadly secrets.

Another page-turner from William Shaw
A gripping read and excellent addition to a fabulous series. If you're already a fan of DS Alex Cupidi and Shaw's stories of her life and cases, this elevates their already stellar standard even further. If you're not, yet, while you can start with this one if you want to (no prior knowledge is necessary) you might prefer to begin at the beginning with Salt Lane and keep going from there.
This audio book, superbly narrated (or performed) by Jasmine Blackborow, is an excellent version providing complete immersion (get it?) in the story line while you are driving or doing mindless tasks. Stopping play is no easier than putting the book down. Thank you, William, for a thoroughly enjoyable read / listen.

Thank you very much for several enjoyable hours. It s so difficult to find a good detective story and likeable characters at the same time. The narration was very good too.

Brilliant characters, well-plotfed page-turnwr
Love the characters, and the stories Shaw tells always make sense and seem real. Gripping. Sad I'll have to wait a while for the next Cupidi, though, but worth the wait.

An Enjoyable Multi Plot Story
I loved this book. It worked that all the main characters were involved in interesting investigations. Great character development and I’m looking forward to seeing how their lives are panning out in the next book. I didn’t guess the out come of any of the story lines either. I highly recommend.
