About this listen

A series of gruesome murders on the Lincolnshire fens. An old enemy from the past. A deadly game of cat and mouse.

The peaceful little village of Saltern-le-Fen is buzzing with excitement. A film crew are in town, shooting a new TV police drama, Fen Division Five. But Detective Jackman receives a disturbing tip-off that something is wrong.

Detective Marie Evans meanwhile is looking forward to moving into her dream home. But there’s no time to celebrate. The naked body of a young man is found at the river’s edge. He’s been strangled, his skin massaged in expensive oil.

Two days later, another handsome young man is discovered in a shallow lake. His throat cut. He too is lathered in body oil.

At the same time, an arch enemy from the past emerges. A master manipulator who has his sights on Jackman and Evans. From behind the bars of his high security prison, he’s putting the finishing touches to a devastating revenge plan.

As they hunt a brutal killer, Jackman and Evans are themselves hunted in a deadly game of cat and mouse – and the stakes could not be higher.

This was the last book in the series of the Jackman and Evans murder investigations. It was nice to have proper closure. It was a fabulous series and kept me spellbound with each book. Highly recommend! Having Richard Armitage as narrator was perfection.

I have read every single one of the Jackman and Evans books, and love them all. This one was no different. I hope Joy Ellis decides to continue, but if she doesn't, this was the perfect ending to the series. I highly recommend the entire series! And nobody narrates like Richard Armitage. His voice is like butter!

Fantastic Book!
