Story
When Matt Ballard was starting out his career, three boys were murdered in the same area, the remote and bleak Gibbet Fen. When the main suspect was killed in a hit-and-run, the killings stopped. But Matt was not satisfied that the real murderer had been caught. Over 25 years later, Matt gets a photo in an unmarked envelope. It's of the Gibbet Fen crime scene. And the picture was taken before the murder took place. More photos arrive, relating to the historic murders, as well as intimate pictures of Matt's very secret private life.

Story
The story opens with the apparently accidental drowning of a sixth form student in the Norfolk countryside. As a matter of routine, or so it seems, the case passes across the desk of Detective Sergeant Smith, recently returned to work after an internal investigation into another case that has led to tensions between officers at Kings Lake police headquarters. As an ex-DCI, Smith could have retired by now, and it is clear that some of his superiors wish that he would do so.

Joe Pickett is the new game warden in Twelve Sleep, Wyoming, a town where nearly everyone hunts and the game warden—especially one like Joe who won't take bribes or look the other way—is far from popular. When he finds a local hunting outfitter dead, splayed out on the woodpile behind his state-owned home, he takes it personally. There had to be a reason that the outfitter, with whom he's had run-ins before, chose his backyard, his woodpile to die in.

Great story, fantastic narration
This was the 2nd book that I've listed to in this series, and I do really enjoy them. Richard Armitage's narration, though, is truly wonderful. I can't say enough about how much I enjoy him. I never thought I would actually be searching out books just for the narrator, but I do that now! I will keep listening to more books in this series, because the characters and the stories have been enjoyable, certainly enough to keep me coming back for more.

An okay, fairly predictable story.
It wasn't too hard to guess where the story was going.
Not bad but not great.

Found It Dull
I usually love a good thriller and can’t get enough of mysteries. However, this book just didn’t hold my attention. I tried really hard to stay engaged with it but I found myself drifting. Don’t know whether it was the story itself, the narration, or both, but it just never captured my attention.

Misc
Lots of charaters important to follow them carefully sometimes I had to go back and start again.
Narrator
Love Richard Armitage, he has created a set of beautiful charaters that I find myself caring about second book in.
Biased Review:
Lots of action without to much gore, I like the mystery without the blood details. Very interesting, and hooked to the end. Moving on to Book 3.

The book drags on and on
Although the premise of the story and the storytellers were great, the pace of the story itself left a lot to be desired. Excruciatingly slow and eventually I just lost interest.

An interesting story.
The subject of nature versus nurture helped make this struggle grab the reader quickly. If you had an inkling, would you act normally. A good episode.
