Summary

Beware what lies beneath....

One fateful, starry night, three friends embark on a secret camping trip, but only two return home. Thirty years later, the body of a teenage boy rises from the depths of England's biggest reservoir and threatens to expose a killer who has lain dormant...until now.

Detective Chief Inspector Ryan returns from honeymoon to face danger from all sides. In the depths of Kielder Forest, a murderer has escaped justice before and will do anything to protect the secrets of the past. Meanwhile, back at Northumbria CID, an old foe has taken the helm as Superintendent and is determined to destroy Ryan at any cost.

Who will prevail in Ryan's most dangerous case yet?

Murder and mystery are peppered with romance and humour in this fast-paced crime whodunit set amidst the spectacular Northumbrian landscape.

DCI Ryan is on form

Another great DCI Ryan story. Narrated by the amazing Jonathan Keeble. His narration is like a balm to the soul

Paragraph

Enjoying listening to this series purchased in sale even though a bit predictable. Very good narration but this is the second book in this series where I need to rewind as the scenes change without a pause. Maybe if reading the book a new paragraph indicates this change?

really enjoyable read overall

Really enjoyed overall,well written, beautifully narrated, main character brilliant, My only comment would be that it was left a bit in the air; with main story left hanging as well as a couple of background stories left incomplete...maybe they continue in next book?

another 'page turner'

enjoyed this story but felt it ended somewhat unresolved which is clearly the idea and draws me into wondering what comes next.
