About this listen

From number-one best-selling author Joy Ellis, a totally absorbing mystery full of stunning twists and turns. Discover the author everyone’s talking about.

A mystery which will captivate you till the stunning ending.

A crime wave has hit town. The target is a highly sought-after brand of streetwear called Hybird X, clothing that costs a fortune and resells for unbelievable prices. Houses are burgled, kids mugged on the streets...and finally a young man dies, all for the sake of his shoes.

Then another boy’s body is found in a pile of rubbish. Meanwhile illegal steroids are flooding the streets. And there are dark movements on the marshes.

Clothes that people will kill to own.

A shadowy figure called Darke and his teams of young criminals seem to be behind it all.

Detectives Jackman and Evans must take on a fiendish criminal, while still haunted by Alistair Ashcroft, the serial killer they never caught.

Who is Darke and what does he really want?

Full of twists and turns, this is a crime thriller that will grip you until the shocking ending. Set in the atmospheric Lincolnshire Fens whose towns and isolated villages hide many dark secrets.

Perfect for fans of Rachel Abbott, Sarah A. Denzil, Robert Bryndza, Mel Sherratt, Angela Marsons, Colin Dexter and Ruth Rendell.

The detectives.

DI Jackman leads the investigation. He is extremely smart and has a knack for bringing out the best in his diverse team. DS Marie Evans is haunted by the loss of her husband in a motorbike accident. She is fiercely loyal to her friends and colleagues.

The story is engaging and disturbing as it involves abuse, manipulation of youths and adults, crime, and significant trauma. I found the responses to trauma to be reasonable, kind, intentional, compassionate, and important. It was refreshing to have a positive and largely trauma-informed response from police - something seldom shared in news reports. Thoroughly enjoying this series! Looking forward to the next one.

Engaging and disturbing story.

While I do love the characters, and I do think this series is well written (although this was the weakest of the books so far), it is Richard Armitage that takes the books to a "6" on a scale of one to five. I simply could listen to him read a phone book - amazing. But again, Joy Ellis has given him good material and I do not mean to discount her marvelous work.

I love this series of Joy Ellis and this one was no exception. The characters come alive and there is excitement and nerve racking moments while solving the case. This is the type of book that you just never want to put down. The narration is excellent.
