Echoes on the Fens: A gripping crime thriller full of twists

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.

About the Author

UK #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE JACKMAN & EVANS AND DI NIKKI GALENA SERIES; SHORTLISTED FOR BOOK OF THE YEAR FICTION: CRIME & THRILLER AT THE BRITISH BOOK AWARDS 2021 OVER 3 MILLION BOOKS SOLD! Joy grew up and lived in Kent, trained in floristry in Mayfair and ran her own highly successful floristry business in Weybridge for many years. In the mid-1990s, she followed her lifelong love of books, first as the manager of an independent bookshop in Leatherhead, Surrey, then as a writer. When she retired, Joy and her partner Jacqueline and their two spaniels settled in a village just outside Boston, captivated by the Lincolnshire Fens. Joy's happy home life is far removed from her storylines, however, and while she loves living in the misty Fens, the area provides a remote and eerie backdrop to her novels. Joy is also able to add the authenticity vital to any crime thriller by drawing on Jacqueline's inside knowledge, to confirm procedures and the reality of tackling brutal crime and criminals in a modern police force.
