Echoes on the Fens - Joy Ellis

From multi-million-selling Joy Ellis. Her twistiest mystery ever!

Three days. Three murders. No leads . . . except for Detective Nikki Galena's mother.

The call comes at 6.30 a.m. Widowed Angela Sandford has been found dead in her expensively-furnished bungalow. An overdose, it would appear.

But to Detective Nikki it doesn't add up. Angela was planning a holiday next month. The trip of a lifetime. She had everything to live for.

The following night there's another death on Nikki's patch. A fatal hit-and-run. A young woman deliberately mown down as she picked up a takeaway fish supper.

The next day, a third suspicious death. The dead man is found sprawled on the dining room floor in his grand old house, blood soaking into the carpet.

And Nikki's mother was the last person to see him alive.

In each case, there is no clue, no motive and no suspect. It's up to Nikki and her team to find the link before more people die.

The Setting

The Lincolnshire Fens: great open skies brood over marshes, farmland, and nature reserves. It is not easy terrain for the Fenland Constabulary to police: with remote Fen villages, dangerous and often misty lanes, and poor telephone coverage. There are still villages where the oldest residents have never set foot outside their own farmland. A visit to the nearest town is a major event. But it has a strange airy beauty to it, and above it all are the biggest skies you've ever seen.

This totally gripping mystery is perfect for fans of L.J. Ross, Angela Marsons, J.D. Kirk, Elly Griffiths and Ann Cleeves.
