DI Nikki Galena: A police detective with nothing left to lose, she's seen a girl die in her arms, and her daughter will never leave the hospital again. She's gotten tough on the criminals she believes did this to her. Too tough. And now she's been given one final warning: make it work with her new sergeant, DS Joseph Easter, or she's out.

Her partner, DS Joseph Easter, is the handsome, squeaky-clean new member of the team. But his nickname, Holy Joe, belies his former life as a soldier. He has an estranged daughter who blames him for everything that went wrong with their family.

Their adversary is a ruthless man who holds DI Galena responsible for his terrible disfigurement.

Would you listen to Crime on the Fens again? Why?

Yes. Enchanting narration. Lilting, varied, rhythmic speech patterns.

What did you like best about this story?

Distinct, entertaining character development and interesting plot.

Which scene was your favorite?

Nikki is predictable, stereotypic hard-as-nails copper. Also adorable.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I would prefer a few chapters nightly. Pleasant way to wind down.

Any additional comments?

I like the British argot. Different and interesting.

Not your typical "who don-it?"

If you love Jackman and Evans, this fills the void with another likable crew. Narrator does a great job!

Great next step

Ellis developed a set of fully dimensional and rich characters. They’re didn’t develop into what I expected and I appreciate the extra things that make them not cliché. I absolutely loved the ending; it came out of nowhere and sewed things up nicely, but not too nicely.

Full range of humanity.

The characters were likable and we'll developed. The narrator does a great job with different accents and character voices. I'm excited to read the next installment!

Another great DI series for fans of the genre!

I expected another mediocre girl DI story, but found it to be very good. The writing is intelligent, the story line interesting and the narrator did a good job.

Surprisingly good
