Jackman and Evans are back in the latest gripping thriller by Joy Ellis, performed by the incomparable Richard Armitage.

Jackman’s sister-in-law Sarah disappears to London and throws herself into the river. What drove her to this? She was a woman with a seemingly happy homelife and two beloved sons. DI Jackman and DI Evans dig into Sarah’s life. And Jackman realises he knew almost nothing about his sister-in-law’s past.

Then, they discover a woman in a neighbouring village died in similar circumstances. What is the connection to a convicted murderer whose family are convinced he is innocent? Who is really pulling the strings?

Another hard to put down story. Not too happy with the ending but that's because the danger is still lurking. I'm not fond of cliffhangers.

Another winning Joy Ellis novel

I’m listening to this series in order so this is the 4th I’ve listened to. I was concerned as The Fourth Friend was a big departure from the preceding books and not my favorite. I’m pleased to say I enjoyed The Guilty Ones very much. Yes, it can be a little dramatic as other reviewers have said but I’m used to the tone of the author at this point and enjoyed the story. The characters are well fleshed out and who isn’t in love with Richard Armitage? Good all around!

One of her best

Buying a D.I. Jackman mystery by Joy Ellis is a no-brainer for me... and seriously, who wouldn't want to spend some quality time with Richard Armitage as the narrator?!?!
This time, the case is personal... D.I. Jackman's sister-in-law disappears, and later, her body shows up as what appears to be an obvious suicide, but both Jackman and his D.S. Evans, feel that things are rather "hinky." So he and his team methodically start their investigation... This is a tightly-paced police procedural, and once again, Joy Ellis writes a story that will keep you spellbound!

Getting a Jackman and Evans book is a no brainer..

The twists and turns are amazing. Ellis is a plot master.
Armitage keeps characters vibrant and believable.
This is #4 for me with the duo. Waiting for more.

Ellis and Armitage, a perfect pair

Joy Ellis keeps me up at night because I can't stop listening to these amazing stories of hers...they just keep getting better and better. Also, Richard Armitage is hands down the best narrator, so I'm getting very little sleep these days.
