Publisher's summary

The debut crime thriller series of the year!

Four missing children, three murdered men and the helm of a boat with a blood-red sail, hiding a secret only he can tell.

Returning to the Broads after nearly two years at sea, John Tanner moors up next to a boat to find the body of a man whose five-year-old daughter is nowhere to be seen. As a torrent of unwanted memories begins flooding through his mind, an attractive Broads Ranger arrives at the scene with a disturbing tale; one of children being taken by a ghostly figure, standing at the helm of an old wooden boat.

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

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

Great book and wonderful narration..

I really enjoyed this book, even though I've read so many books since then that I had to go back and read the other review to try to remember what happened. AND then I remembered Jenny and how ticked off I was at this author for that!

Anyway, lots of killings and stolen children that Tanner had to solve.

No sex and the F-bomb was used 16 times.

As for the narration: Jonathan Keeble is one of the very BEST English narrators.

Tanner’s back

I liked this more than I thought I would. However, Tanner’s actions are out of line for normal police procedure as far as I can tell. I must admit the ending was the least liked part of the book for me. It was sad and rather violent.

The narration was a plus. Jonathan Keeble does his usual fine job.

I had forgotten

what melodramatic Productions these are. And the foolishness and ineptness of the characters is also a hoot!

i wish I could collect a credit for every
book featuring a beautiful female character with green eyes. i went to high school with a classmate who sported eyes the color of Siamese
cats. Eyes were blue or brown.
Now green is the go-to color for
the 21st century eyes. It means
I'm not gonna like the book.... just as
I disliked this one.
