Deadly Little Secret

A British Murder Mystery (The Wild Fens Murder Mystery Series, Book 16)

See nobody, hear nobody, tell nobody…

When DCI Freya Bloom and DI Ben Savage are called to an abandoned farmhouse in Billinghay, Lincolnshire, they expect the worst. The caller to emergency services had reported finding a man’s body. Yet, except for an old tent and a few personal possessions, the old house is empty. The investigation comes to a grinding halt before it’s even begun.

With no body, there is no crime, and Freya’s efforts to quietly pursue the incident stall when another call comes in. This time there is a body, and there is a crime – and it’s one they will never forget. The victim is an unidentified male, but with no leads and no evidence whatsoever, the team hit dead end after dead end, until finally they make a breakthrough that reveals a devastating truth and a Deadly Little Secret that has haunted Billinghay for decades.

Deadly Little Secret is the sixteenth book in the bestselling Wild Fens mysteries by Jack Cartwright, the million-selling author of the Deadly Wolds Mysteries. Fans of Jack Cartwright also enjoy books by LJ Ross, J.M. Dalgliesh, Simon McCleave, Ann Cleeves, and Val McDermid.

I really missed these two. My favorite sleuths real dynamic duo. They never failed to capture the bad guys and have adventures along the way. As always brilliant writing and narration.
