Introducing Richard Armitage, our star narrator
Richard is well-known for his array of film, television and theatre work, including The Hobbit, Spooks and The Crucible. His trademark baritone voice has earned him recognition, too, through his performance on many notable audiobooks as well as in TV and radio show narration. This experience shines through in Armitage's gripping performance of the Jackman and Evans series where he plays host to a plethora of characters.
And Joy Ellis, the book's author
Joy Ellis started her career as a flower seller in Mayfair in the 1960s, before going on to open her own florist in Surrey. When the recession hit, Joy had a career change and became a bookseller, and attended a writing course in Greece where she was mentored by Sue Townsend. She now lives in the Fens with her partner Jacqueline, where the flatlands and marshes provide inspiration for her eerie plotlines.
Summary
Crimebusting duo DI Jackman and DS Evans are back solving another crime.Twenty years ago: a farmer and his wife are cut to pieces by a ruthless serial killer.
Now: a woman is viciously stabbed to death in the upmarket kitchen of her beautiful house on the edge of the marshes.
Then a man called Daniel Kinder walks into Saltern police station and confesses to the murder.
But DI Rowan Jackman and DS Marie Evans of the Fenland Constabulary soon discover that there is a lot more to Daniel than meets the eye. He has no memory of the first five years of his life and has a rather unusual obsession with his mother...
Full of twists and turns, this is a crime thriller that will keep you gripped until the shocking ending.

Crime busting duo - Jackman and Evans!
I’ve only just found this author and glad that I have.
I enjoyed the story, the setting and the nice twists along the way.
Jackman and Evans are great characters and work well together.
I also loved the narrator, he brought Hackman to life and read the novel well. His voice is a pleasure to listen to.

The Murderer's Son I recommend you read it 1st
The Murderer's Son is the 1st Jackman and Evans book by Joy Ellis. I listened to it as the 2nd in the series. It's a police procedural thriller with lots of twist and turns. However, if your read it 2nd after 'Their Lost Daughters' it's likely you will guess the Murderer as soon as the character is introduced. You've been warned!
Richard Armitage's performance is excellent as usual.
