Produktbeschreibung
From multi-million-selling Joy Ellis, one of Britain's best-loved crime writers, with over twenty number-one bestsellers. Meet Detective Nikki Galena. She will stop at nothing to avenge her daughter. Under the brooding skies of the Lincolnshire Fens, she pursues the most vicious criminals. A ruthless criminal is targeting Nikki and her team. One by one he will hunt them down and destroy their lives . . . unless she can stop him first. It's PC Danny Wilshire's first day on the job. He's on the 'bun-run' with DC Cat Cullen, picking up sausage rolls for the team. A large black vehicle deliberately mounts the pavement outside the bakery and crashes into them. The impact is swift and violent, hurling Danny through the shop window, and leaving his broken body in a heap of shattered display cabinets and crushed pastries. This is no random attack. Danny was deliberately targeted . . . and he's just the first. Detective Nikki is in a race against time to hunt down a cruel and determined enemy who will stop at nothing to harm her and her team. And what is the connection with the woman found dead in a seemingly impregnable locked room? The Setting The Lincolnshire Fens: great open skies brood over marshes, farmland, and nature reserves. It is not easy terrain for the Fenland Constabulary to police: with remote Fen villages, dangerous and often misty lanes, and poor telephone coverage. There are still villages where the oldest residents have never set foot outside their own farmland. A visit to the nearest town is a major event. But it has a strange airy beauty to it, and above it all are the biggest skies you've ever seen. This totally gripping mystery is perfect for fans of L.J. Ross, Angela Marsons, J.D. Kirk, Elly Griffiths and Ann Cleeves.
Autorenporträt
UK #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE JACKMAN & EVANS AND DI NIKKI GALENA SERIES; SHORTLISTED FOR BOOK OF THE YEAR FICTION: CRIME & THRILLER AT THE BRITISH BOOK AWARS 2021OVER 2 MILLION BOOKS SOLD!Joy grew up and lived in Kent, trained in floristry in Mayfair and ran her own highly successful floristry business in Weybridge for many years. In the mid-1990s, she followed her lifelong love of books, first as the manager of an independent bookshop in Leatherhead, Surrey, then as a writer. When she retired, Joy and her partner Jacqueline and their two spaniels settled in a village just outside Boston, captivated by the Lincolnshire Fens.Joy's happy home life is far removed from her storylines, however, and while she loves living in the misty Fens, the area provides a remote and eerie backdrop to her novels. Joy is also able to add the authenticity vital to any crime thriller by drawing on Jacqueline's inside knowledge, to confirm procedures and the reality of tackling brutal crime and criminals in a modern police force.
