Summary

From two-million-selling author Joy Ellis comes one of the most keenly anticipated mysteries this year.

It arrives in the morning. An old-fashioned airmail envelope addressed to Detective Nikki Galena. Inside, on a single sheet of blue airmail paper, are three words: You failed me.

The second airmail envelope arrives at Nikki's home address. The same message. Only this time, it's followed by four names: Alexandra Cornfield, Ruth Baker, Bethany Lyons, Leanne Delaney.

Four missing women. Four local women whose bodies were never found.

The contents of the third letter, delivered by motorcycle courier, are even more disturbing.

The letter leads directly to the discovery of a body buried in a shallow grave out on the Fens. And Nikki and her partner Detective Joseph Easter are plunged into a baffling murder investigation.

Someone appears to be pursuing a personal vendetta against Nikki—and she has no idea who, or why. But one thing she does know: whoever it is is playing a very twisted game—and if Nikki and her team don't stop them, more deaths will follow.

Poor narration

Good story line as always but narrator was very poor. Kind of spoilt the whole experience

Another great crime story

I have loved every story in this series. Really feel like I know the characters too.
Am hoping there will be more.

Love these books but….

… the narrator really spoiled this book for me, pronunciation was very irritating and clearly not at all ‘East of England’. I couldn’t tell which character was speaking half the time as she has no vocal skills.

Brilliant story, poor narration

Unfortunately have to agree with others in that the narrator did not add much in the way of excitement or feeling to what was a very good story…

Graves on the Fens

The story was interesting but the narrator sounded quite aggressive at times, which was off putting

Great series

I had read this before but saw it on the audible sale so choose the audio version as well. It worked really well and I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this. It is really interesting seeing how Nikki and Joseph continue growing and each has their own particular attributes.

I liked the narration.

Another Joy Ellis novel

Whilst I appreciate the importance of clarity in an audible book, I find this particular narrator’s enunciation irritating.

Gripping and full of twists.

This was well worth the wait. This was book 14 in the series and it did not disappoint. This was a tough investigation for Nikki, Joseph and the team. Again they shown a great ability to work well together and work out the leads. The book was full of twists that made it action packed. I hope there will be more as this is a gripping series.
