Summary
'Ross Greenwood doesn’t write clichés. What he has written here is a fast-paced, action-filled puzzle with believable characters that's spiced with a lot of humour' Kath Middleton
A family’s secrets lie buried. The time has come to uncover the truth…
When a mud-splattered man staggers from Bacton Wood with a terrifying tale about being buried alive, DS Ashley Knight and her team are called in to investigate. Soon, another victim is found, and more men are missing – all with connections to the well-known Vialli family.
The Major Investigation Team find themselves attempting to untangle a case that stretches from Eastern Europe through to North Norfolk. Along with rookie detective, the whip-smart Hector Fade, Ashley is in a race against time trying to help a family who seem determined to take matters into their own hands. And when Ashley suspects there is a department rat, the stakes get even higher.
As the evidence continues to point in different directions, and as new victims are uncovered thick and fast, Ashley and Hector begin to fear they have finally met their match in a killer too ruthless and clever to be caught.
Bestselling Ross Greenwood is back with a breath-taking page-turning thriller, perfect for fans of Mark Billingham, Ian Rankin and Peter James.
'Move over Rebus and Morse; a new entry has joined the list of great crime investigators in the form of Detective Inspector John Barton. A rich cast of characters and an explosive plot kept me turning the pages until the final dramatic twist' Richard Burke

An absorbing story that captivates you immediately
Picking up nicely from Book 2, DS Ashley Knight and her team are tested to the extreme in this third book set in Norfolk. Sometimes, rarely, to be frank, people do get their comeuppance.
After the sisters flee Eastern Europe for a better life in the UK, they are tricked into a prostitution ring run by an Italian gang, the leader being Rocco and his two vile sons.
Several attacks on men start occurring, and the crime team are shocked by the brutality used. Realising that the Italian gang seems to be one step ahead of them, Knight wonders if there is a snitch amongst her team.
I would have read this book in a day if I hadn't started it late. Greenwood's writing gets better with each book. I thoroughly enjoyed the pace and twists and turns.
Great read.
5/5

I like the easy to listen to story
The story keeps you interested and not to gory.
The lead detective and her team are likeable, all in all a good story.
Looking forward to the next one.

Good but not Greenwood’s best!
I liked the first book, LOVED the second book, this one was okay… in the last book there was so much character development but in this book it’s barely there. First half of the book was a bit slow but I persevered and it does get better towards the end. I will read the next book in the series if there is one.

Worth the wait
The first book I have had in my wish list and looked forward to the release date. Loved being surrounded by the familiar characters again...another gripping, twisting plot bit also a comfort listen! That's an unusual Venn diagram but Ross has done it!

Another excellent listen
Great story with many threads that all linked together.
Love the characters with the right balance of human emotion without being over the top.
As always - superb narration!

My Favourite Norfolk Murder Book.
I’ve enjoyed all three books in this series, but this has to be my favourite. I enjoy listening to the narrator, he brings the characters to life and I care about what happens to them. I’m looking forward to the next in the series.
