About this listen

Journalist Philip Dryden is shocked to be informed by police that his father has been killed in a car accident - he drowned during the fenland floods of 1977, 35 years before. At the same time, two unrelated cases are demanding Dryden's professional attention: a body riddled with bullets found hanging in the middle of a lettuce field, and a couple protesting that the local council has buried their baby daughter in a pauper's grave without permission.

As Dryden pieces the clues together, he realizes that the three cases may be related after all....

This was my first listen from this author but it won't be my last .Wonderfully crafted tale that never flags . All of the characters were really well defined by the reader with no pointless side plots to distract your attention.

very well read. Excellent quality story

Even if I didn't enjoy the plots, even if I hadn’t got a bit of a reader's crush on Phillip Dryden, I would still love these books for the descriptive writing. The setting is so beautifully described that I feel as if I've travelled through the fens myself.

Great Writing
