Jackman and Evans are back in the latest gripping thriller by Joy Ellis, performed by the incomparable Richard Armitage.

Jackman’s sister-in-law Sarah disappears to London and throws herself into the river. What drove her to this? She was a woman with a seemingly happy homelife and two beloved sons. DI Jackman and DI Evans dig into Sarah’s life. And Jackman realises he knew almost nothing about his sister-in-law’s past.

Then, they discover a woman in a neighbouring village died in similar circumstances. What is the connection to a convicted murderer whose family are convinced he is innocent? Who is really pulling the strings?

Where's the next one?

I find Joy Ellis books very hard to put down. She's a writer who clearly defines her characters, the Fenlands and what is going to happen or has happened.
She never loses sight of the Fens, so you are transported to a very different part of England, one that is wide and open and totally captivating.
Once you have read the first book, and yes, it's best to start at the beginning, you won't be able to stop until you are, like the rest of us, begging for the next one.

Extremely enjoyable

Reviewed in Australia on 18 August 2018

I enjoyed this book very much. Sometimes a little stretch of the imagination for search results to be so easily obtained but still a very good read.....just ignore the parts that sort of make you shake your head. It is just a story after all, and if we don’t have these little pieces of far fetched results, and a team that just “knows” intuitively what each are thinking and can work seamlessly together then there is no story.

Very readable, and I will look forward to more.

Complex Case

Reviewed in Australia on 8 June 2018

Verified Purchase

Not a book you can put down and return to next day with the complexity of the story. The story begins with unusual deaths and then continues to analyse these by various detectives, a psychologist, a forensic team and computer experts. I did find there was so many characters involved that after a while I had a page full of names to remember and there part played in this story which was a bit off putting. The twisted desire of the serial killer kept everyone on their toes almost taunting them with the occasional paragraph his victims had in their procession. Without telling the story he turns out to be a master manipulator of people with devious intent which he has planned for a long time. The story is very interesting but overloaded with people.

Another intriguing suspenseful finish

Great read difficult to put down. Enjoyed the build up towards the end when all was revealed. The impact on force's stress levels and how they individually and collectively dealt with same added to the reader's appreciation of the characters being "real." When do they go on holidays?!

Hard to put down

Reviewed in Australia on 30 May 2018

Another cracking read from Joy Ellis. The fourth in the Jackman / Evans series, this one runs close to home for Jackman when his sister-in-law disappears and then throws herself into a river in London. This is an engaging read, with enough twists and turns to make it hard to put down. As always, I appreciated the sense of camaraderie Joy Ellis creates between her characters and the 'solving' of a case through team work, rather than the single brilliant mind kind of approach.

Promising plot but ending was rushed and unbelievable.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 April 2019

Verified Purchase

This is the second book by Joy Ellis that I read and I thought that I had found a new writer to follow. The plot was good - that of a wronged murderer who was in fact innocent. The new murders sound plausible but at the end part we have a motorcycle chase and the guilty party, despite a broken arm following a crash, somehow just disappears despite being followed by a squad of cars!!! The next page is Epilogue: Two months later. It was if the author had reached the page count and just gave up. REALLY disappointing and frankly a right cop out by Joy Ellis. The First book I read was 'The Lost Boys' and the ending of that was unfinished in many ways - but as this was her 10th plus book, feel that this is simply unacceptable from the readers point of view. I won't be wasting my time with anything more from this author. Disappointing is my overall review.

Let down again

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 August 2018

I said I would never read another book by Joy Ellis, but the plot looked good and there were some favourable reviews so I thought I would give her a second chance. The plot was ok but I don't think the long delay in seeking revenge by the perpetrator was fully explored. None of the characters were especially endearing, and I found that I didn't really care about them.

Once again the dialogue and narrative spoilt the flow for me, it was really off putting having the characters speak in such a stilted way. Perhaps people speak like that in the Fens, I don't know. Phrases such as 'you cannot ', 'I will go', 'you will not', for example, people just don't talk like that! And other terms such as 'Oh Lord' and 'blast' reminded me of Enid Blyton. I was fully expecting a 'grand' and 'champion ' to find its way in followed by the police officers celebrating by drinking lashings of ginger beer!

No more Joy Ellis unless she gets her characters to be more realistic and to talk properly.

OK read

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 August 2018

Verified Purchase

Not the worst book I've ever read but not the best either. The grammar was OK, thankfully, but it was not very exciting reading. I did manage to get to the rather unsatisfactory ending.

I did make a note of one error - at location 1782 the name "Pritchard" was mistakenly used instead of "Seaton". Bring your proof reader to task Ms Joy Ellis.

I don't think I'll purchase further books by this author as I've since realised that I was unimpressed with her book "Beware the Past"

First and Last

This is the first and, I'm afraid, the last time I shall buy a Joy Ellis book. Such a cosy and naive style. I was unable to find any excitement or, indeed, anything corresponding to police procedure in the novel. The ending was, if anything, even more disappointing. Not for me!

Slow start but more gripping as it goes on

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 31 May 2018

Verified Purchase

After reading a lot of books where the detectives are difficult to get on with, this was "nice", everyone got on well and thought a lot of each other. As I live in Lincolnshire it was strange having it mention places I know! The storyline is well thought out and gripping, however I have mixed thoughts about the ending! It was the first Joy Ellis book that I've read but I have already downloaded the first book in the series to read next.
