Black Notice

Jackman & Evans, Book 11

De: Joy Ellis

Narrado por: Richard Armitage

A Black Notice means one thing: unidentified human remains. This time, five skeletons buried deep in the fenland soil.

Rowan Jackman and Marie Evans are the detectives who take on the toughest cases on the Lincolnshire fens. This time trouble comes in threes.

6 a.m. on a dark autumn morning. Retired detective Bob Ruston is about to feed the dog when the doorbell rings. The man on the doorstep has blood running down his cheek and a look of terror on his face. 'Please! Let me in! They're going to kill me!'

Bob sees a handcuff dangling from the man's lacerated wrist.

Later that day, a stylishly dressed woman marches into Saltern-le-Fen police station demanding to see Detective Marie Evans. 'I want you to find my husband.'

Then a homeowner clearing undergrowth in his back garden makes a horrifying discovery. The decomposing remains of five bodies huddled in an old World War 2 pillbox.

Detective Jackman asks Interpol to issue a Black Notice. But little is he prepared for the shocking results that come in . . .

long live Guy of Gisborne!

Love love love Richard's narration. Usually actors don't narrate the best and literally read the book to you in monotone. RAs narration was so so good and although there are a million characters, you know who is talking. Also the author introduces them so well, that you know each character somewhat intimately and aren't like, which one was this again? Great story, great acting!

The twist!

Good plot, easy to follow the multiple cases with an interesting ending to the story. Great addition to the free catalog.

Jackman and Evans

Another great story from Joy Ellis. Wonderful narration by Richard Armitage. Looking forward to more in this series.

Excellent and exciting as always!

This was the best one yet! Great twists and turns that keep the reader guessing until the end!

Thrilling listen to the very end

Armitage provides yet again an excellent performance. Love his voice and all the accents he applies. The story is great with its mysterious opening and various strands that all tie together at the end. Enjoyed it very much. Can wait for the next Marie Evan’s crime buster.

Another great book!

Just when you think you have it figured out, you are proven wrong! Thank you for keeping me on my toes

interesting characters and plot.

Sometimes hard to follow, but the characters and story line made the difference. interesting that law enforcement didn't take a hard line, and considers circumstances

Superb as always

Another excellent listen and story. Joy Ellis and the man with the golden voice, Richard Armtage, make the perfect team.

Great listen

I’ve listened to every book in the series so far and they have all been great. I highly recommended and the narration is wonderful.

Excellent Plot

Loved it all, kept me awake late into the night. Great plot, wonderful characters. This is my first DI Jackman book and am hooked. Once I finish with the DCI Ryan series will definitely be back to start this set.
