The BRAND NEW twisty, irresistibly clever new instalment in the bestselling Norfolk Murders series!

Must-listen for fans of Mark Billingham, Ian Rankin and Peter James

'The Norfolk series is Ross Greenwood’s crowning achievement - characters to root for, an intricate web of suspense, all set against a stunning backdrop. I can’t wait for more!' Wes Markin

When everyone is lying, how do you catch a killer?

A brutal attack at Fakenham Racecourse plunges DI Ashley Knight into the competitive world of horse racing, where fortunes are won and lost in the blink of an eye. As the investigation unfolds, a chilling discovery reveals a darker side to this glamorous sport. In these high-stakes arenas, where winning is everything and everyone has something to hide, a few are willing to cross the ultimate line.

Can Ashley, an outsider in a world of whispers and long-held grudges, unmask the murderer before they kill again?

Ross Greenwood is back with a brand-new, heart-pounding case for DI Ashley Knight!

While I absolutely love Ross Greenwood's writing, this particular story was so confusing at times, I almost stopped listening. His research into horse racing/betting was amazing, but I found that he lost my interest on several occasions because of all the storyline changes. I personally don't want to work that hard to understand a book that is supposed to be relaxing to listen to...as always, the narration was perfect and the characters were great.

I absolutely love David Thorpe narrations! Him combined w the characters provided by Ross Greenwood never fail.
Spoiler:

Poor Barry. Maybe the next book he will win Ashley over. Can’t wait!

Another great listen.

Death at Fakenham Races was a fun listen leading up to the Belmont stakes. Interesting background, and a clever mystery as well. The ongoing drama with the regular cast of characters was especially enjoyable in this edition.

I love this series

Unfortunately, this book bored me stiff. Even with a handful of murders, it was very flat without any drama. It also needed a little punch of the team’s story, but there was very little of that.

Slow and Plodding

Horses are beautiful creatures, but a whole story based on a race track and the details of racing and betting never engaged me.

Too much a tutorial on horse racing and the intricacies of betting
