About this listen

'Ross Greenwood doesn’t write clichés. What he has written here is a fast-paced, action-filled puzzle with believable characters that's spiced with a lot of humour' Kath Middleton

A brutal double murder on a Norfolk beach horrifies the town of Cromer. The way the victims died is chilling and so Norfolk’s Major Investigation Team task DS Ashley Knight to manage the case.

It soon becomes clear that the murders were carefully planned and the finger of suspicion points to an organised crime gang, but as the evidence mounts, a far more sinister theory emerges.

Ashley has been allocated a young but opinionated partner in Hector Fade, and sparks soon fly. Annoyingly for Ashley, Hector is no pushover and looks destined for great things. When the pair delve into the case, they struggle to understand who would inflict such suffering on their victims and hope the crime is a one off from a deranged and dangerous individual. But then another body is found.

There’s a killer on the loose who must be caught, or other victims will meet their fate by the sea.

Bestselling Ross Greenwood is back with the start of an exciting new series, perfect for fans of Mark Billingham, Ian Rankin and Peter James.

'Move over Rebus and Morse; a new entry has joined the list of great crime investigators in the form of Detective Inspector John Barton. A rich cast of characters and an explosive plot kept me turning the pages until the final dramatic twist' Richard Burke

'The Norfolk series is Ross’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

Excellent narration! Good storyline. Humorous at times. I got lost in so many characters, though.

David Thorpe and Ross Greenwood have hit it out of the park again. Definitely a new series well worth a listen. Can’t wait for book two

Unbeatable duo

Ross Greenwood writing and David Thorpe narrating is a winning combination every time for me. I was disappointed that the D.I. Barton series ended because I thoroughly enjoyed each book (I’ve gone back to listen again while waiting for this new series). Though the main characters are quite different between series, I enjoyed this one and am looking forward to more. I find the characters quite relatable and storyline interesting.

Doesn’t disappoint!

Ross Greenwood is quickly becoming one of my favourite authors, particularly when the Audible versions of his work are narrated by David Thorpe. The pacing of this book is so brilliant; the reader gets pieces of the puzzle dropped in at just the right moment, all the way to the end. The result is a thoughtful, balanced storyline, developed characters and a perfectly gratifying conclusion!

Greenwood’s pacing in top form

Yay, a new Detective series from Ross Greenwood. I love this new book and I can’t wait to continue the series I do and will miss DI Barton but I can’t wait to get to know Ashley and crew better.

Unbelievable and illogical plot. The core group of Cromer police officers are at best boring and at worst not likeable, with none of the D I Barton charm and humor. I read the first two books in the series because they were free, but won't be paying for any more.

The setting in Cromer is lovely. Maybe use it for a spin-off of the D I Barton series.

The only good part was hearing David Thorpe's smooth narration again.

Terrible, Bring Back D I Barton
