The Darkest Water

De: Mark Edwards

Narrado por: Simon Mattacks

In this chilling thriller from the bestselling author of Keep Her Secret, if you don’t take your dark secrets to the grave, maybe they’ll take you there first…

Calvin finally owns the bakery of his dreams, in an idyllic village in the Lake District. After reluctantly following his wife Vicky’s advice to promote it on social media, he’s thrilled when a viral clip makes him a legend overnight. But then the creepy DMs start flooding in—all from a stranger who claims she’s his biggest fan.

Meanwhile, a local recluse is found on a nearby beach, buried to his neck and left to drown, and the community goes into shock. Why would anyone want him dead? And who exactly was he? Detective Imogen Evans, new to the Lake District, is under pressure to find out before the killer strikes again.

As the murder hunt gathers pace, Calvin’s obsessive admirer turns up right on cue after his assistant is injured in an accident, and to Vicky’s horror she’s here to stay. As events begin spiralling into darkness, is there anyone in this quiet backwater Calvin can trust—or have his mistakes already put him, and everyone he loves, in terrible danger?

Absolutely Brilliant!!!

Always love Mark Edwards’ last minute jaw dropping twists! This was so good I finished it in one day. I just couldn’t stop listening! Highly recommend!!!

Great Fun!

While the story was neither heavy nor terribly complex, it had a lot of twists and turns that kept it fun and thrilling. There were a bit more coincidental overhearings going on than in real life but all that was necessary to bind otherwise unconnected characters. Really enjoyed it and it kept me engaged nonstop.

Great book

Mark Edwards is never a let down! Truely a great Author! He does not disappoint with this new book

Another brilliant story!

I read this as an ARC and I couldn't wait to listen to it once it was released. As usual with any of Mark Edwards UK set books, I was not disappointed!

Real life drama

The mystery / plot is a perfect set up. Real life rationale. runs straight into a checkered past and a psychopath.
Captivating and surprising twists. Good , clear narration that doesn’t get in the way of the story.
