About this listen

The newly discovered novel from multi-million-selling author Joy Ellis. Never-before published!

THREE NICE PEOPLE. THREE TERRIBLE CRIMES. WHAT MADE THEM DO THESE AWFUL THINGS?

It’s the night shift worker who finds them. Huddled in a hospital store cupboard is elderly Edith Higgins. Knifed to death. Sitting behind her is Staff Nurse Lily Frampton, a scalpel clasped in her blood-soaked hand.

No one can understand why this kind-hearted, dedicated nurse would brutally murder a frail patient she’s spent months caring for.

That same day, mild-mannered schoolteacher Rod Black is found surrounded by the battered bodies of his pupils. Why would a well-respected teacher beat five schoolboys to death?

Then a third shocking — and equally inexplicable — incident takes place in a London homeless shelter.

Grabs attention

Enjoyed both books in the series.I really think the author should revisit the genre. With all her experience she could really build on these two books to give her readers a new and matured central character to enjoy.

Outstanding

Author Joy Ellis please tell me you will be doing a follow up of these two outstanding books ? I am so happy you got them out of the box and published. Once again I was thrown in to the storyline and characters grit and determination to act on the events that engulfed them in another twist and turn of the supernatural. I don't want to give too much away for other readers or listeners I will advise though to purchase both books. Once again a refreshing and brilliantly wrote book. Narrator Sophie Rundal congratulations for bringing the storyline and characters to life brilliant 👏 👌
