Descriere Echoes on the Fens: A gripping crime thriller full of twists - Joy Ellis

From multi-million-selling Joy Ellis, one of Britain's best-loved crime writers, with over twenty number-one bestsellers. Meet Detective Nikki Galena. She will stop at nothing to avenge her daughter. Under the brooding skies of the Lincolnshire Fens, she pursues the most vicious criminals. Three days. Three murders. No leads . . . except for Nikki'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. \nFrom multi-million-selling Joy Ellis. Her twistiest mystery ever! Three days. Three murders. No leads . . . except for Detective Nikki Galena's mother.
