About this listen

Rachel Savernake investigates bizarre crimes and a baffling locked-room puzzle in this Gothic mystery from the winner of the CWA Diamond Dagger.

Yorkshire, 1606. A man vanishes from a locked gatehouse in a remote village. 300 years later, it happens again.

Autumn 1930. Journalist Nell Fagan knows there's only one person who can get to the bottom of this mystery: Rachael Savernake. But someone wants Nell dead, and soon, while investigating a series of recent deaths at Blackstone Sanatorium, she's missing entirely.

Looking for answers, Rachel travels to lonely Blackstone Fell, with its eerie moor, deadly waters and sinister tower. With help from Jacob Flint—who's determined to expose a fraudulent medium at a séance—Rachel will risk her life to bring an end to the disappearances...

A dazzling mystery peopled by clerics and medics and embellished with science and superstition, Blackstone Fell explores the shadowy borderlands between spiritual and scientific, between sanity and madness and between virtue and deadly sin.

Critic reviews

"Superb—a pitch-perfect blend of Golden Age charm and sinister modern suspense, with a main character to die for. This is the book Edwards was born to write." (Lee Child)

"Edwards has managed, brilliantly, to combine a Golden Age setting with a pace that is bang up-to-date." (Peter James)

Must Stop Reading WaPo and NYT Book Reviews

This is the third or fourth title (and author) garnering rave reviews that I struggle to get halfway through let alone finish. The story is horribly meandering, and the characters uninteresting and unlikable. The reader does not help liven up the story--as if anything could--and she voices Rachel in the most unpleasing, supercilious way that becomes more and more grating as the chapters drone on.
In short, this book is a colossal waste of a credit.
