Summary

The Woman in Black is the third gripping Jessica Daniel novel from bestselling sensation, Kerry Wilkinson.

Someone has left a severed hand in the centre of Manchester and the only clue Detective Sergeant Jessica Daniel has to go on is CCTV footage of a woman in a long black robe placing it carefully on the ground.

With a lengthy missing persons list and frantic families wondering if the body part could belong to their absent loved ones, she has plenty to deal with - and that's before a detached finger arrives for her in the post.

By the time a second hand is found and a local MP's wife goes missing, Jessica is left struggling to find out who the appendages belong to, how they are connected and just what the mysterious woman in black has to do with it all.

Another great one in the series!

Any additional comments?

This was another great listen in the series of DC Jessica Daniel crime novels. Held my attention throughout and really well paced.

Great story

Kerry Wilkinson has a vivid imagination. Her stories are intricate and complex. I enjoy them so much I am wading my way through all of them although it will take some time. I have bonded with the main characters who are likeable. I feel a lot of research was done on this book and it shows. Am excellent read

Clever plot

I can't quote work out what I think about the Jessica Daniel series. I've listened to three now and I find the main character rather irritating, too sarcastic and someone not many people would want to work with. This is partly due to the way the narrator portrays her I think though.( Becky Hindley isn't the best choice of narrator for this reason) . The plotlines are very good but a DS would never be given the amount of responsibility that DS Daniel appears to enjoy, it just isn't credible, she's bed to be at least a DI.

good overall

good story kept me listening into the small hours. Annoyed by Jess's rudeness to everybody. Got rather tired of narrator's unchanging voice in dialogue.
