Summary

Jennifer Dorey thinks she is safe.

Following a traumatic incident in London, Jennifer has returned to her childhood home in Guernsey, taking a job as a reporter at the local newspaper. After the discovery of a drowned woman on a beach, she uncovers a pattern of similar deaths that have taken place over the past 50 years.

Together with DCI Michael Gilbert, an officer on the verge of retirement, they follow a dark trail of island myths and folklore to 'Fritz', the illegitimate son of a Nazi soldier. His work, painstakingly executed, has so far gone undetected. But with his identity about to be uncovered, the killer now has Jennifer in his sights. And home is the last place she should be.

An atmospheric crime series set in the Channel Islands that will appeal to fans of Ann Cleeves, Peter May and Elly Griffiths. Deep Dark Water introduces listeners to returning characters journalist Jennifer Dorey and DCI Michael Gilbert.

Stick with it

Odd rendition takes some getting used to but maybe Island burr I did fall in with it but personally would think twice before listening to this reader again

Story good different setting well drawn cast so why not

could have been so much better

finally managed to finish this book after 4 attempts. Very slow and hard to follow. This book had a promising storyline but could have written better. I won't be buying another one from this author.
