Summary

A CHILLING NORFOLK BROADS CRIME THRILLER!

A body found hidden at the bottom of an open church grave, a suspect running in a local election, and a political opponent willing to do whatever it takes to win.

Set within the mysterious beauty of the Norfolk Broads, this fast-paced British detective series is a dark cozy Norfolk murder mystery with a slice of humor and a touch of romance, one that will have you guessing until the very end, when the last shocking twist is finally revealed.

Swanton Morley is a totally addictive gripping crime thriller, the eleventh in a chilling series of serial killer books, ones which will rapidly convert followers of L J Ross, Faith Martin, Joy Ellis, Damien Boyd, J M Dalgliesh, and Elly Griffiths into David Blake devotees.

11 books in and still as enjoyable as the first

I always look forward to each new entry into the DCI Tanner series and have yet to be disappointed. Tanner has everything he could want at this point so I hope the author can find ways to keep it fresh without taking away for the sake of it. I would like to see Tanner taking a backseat a bit more and have a new lead take the reigns with their own brand of detection.

Another gripping story

I really enjoy these books but this one was let down slightly by silly little inaccuracies. Firstly DCI Tanner has jurisdiction as a Police Officer across the whole of the UK so him popping to the other side of Norwich really wouldn't have been an issue especially when his supervisor orderd him to go and secondly Police Officers cannot be made redundant which makes that part of the storyline unrealistic

Entertaining

DI Tanner is back from his honeymoon and is catapulted straight into a new case when a body is found in an open grave in Swanton Morley, and another man hands himself in to the police carrying a knife but swearing he didn't kill anyone. Tanner and his team have to work hard to sort out the mystery. The book is well written and entertaining and the characters are realistic and continue to develop with the series.

The book is brilliantly narrated by the wonderful Jonathan Keeble.

Another Excellent Book in this Series ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I love the constant dry humour of all of the main characters in this series. Each book is brilliantly written, with a fast moving plot, and lots of breadcrumbs dropped for the Reader, along the way.
Brilliant writing paired with Jonathan Keeble's superb narration, and this series is an absolute winner!!

Brilliant narration as always

Although I enjoyed the story which moved at a pace with lots of humour thrown in; I found the overuse of "I don't suppose" by many of the characters, quite irritating and the tone in general, a little smug. I also found the whodunnit element quite predictable from early on. Nonetheless, Jonathan Keeble always does excellent narration and it was easy listening and fun.

Another brilliant episode

Absolutely great story keeping you guessing until the very end. The level of dry humour of DCI Tanner adds to the overall enjoyment. As always, brilliantly narrated by Jonathan Kebble.
