About this listen

A young woman's body is found in a remote barn on the Fens. Before she was killed, one of her fingers had been cut off. Who is inflicting this violence and why?

The young woman in the barn had been kept captive for some time. And the case shows strong similarities to an unsolved murder in Derbyshire. When another woman is found alive with similar injuries, the case grows even more complicated.

At the same time, the Fenland police have received intelligence that the ruthless criminal Freddy Carver plans to make Greenborough the hub for his new enterprise. DI Nikki Galena is desperate to track down Freddie Carver and make sure that he does not put down roots in the Fens, but finding him is not easy. And what's his connection to the kidnapped girls?

Another great plot unfolds in the battle against crime. Joseph's accent is still rather annoying and unattractive (sounds like a very pompous Englishman rather than the heroic wingman!).

When I started the series I was not sure about the narrator. I got used to her after so many books, but feel she is more suited for 1950’s love/ drama novels. Anyhow, this has been the best book of the series as of yet. Interesting characters, great action and good flow.

Best one of the series so far
