About this listen
MURDER IN THE GARDEN OF ENGLAND
DCI David Garrick's world is already spinning out of control. Haunted by his sister's brutal murder and plagued by terrifying visions, he's barely holding it together. But Kent's darkness won't wait for him to recover.
When mutilated bodies start appearing across the county's picturesque villages, Garrick and his fresh-faced team are thrust into a shadowy underworld of human trafficking. Each victim bears the killer's signature – grotesque souvenirs carved from their flesh. But as the body count rises and the victims' identities remain shrouded in mystery, a chilling possibility emerges: they might be hunting more than one monster.
From acclaimed screenwriter Andy Briggs, writing as MG Cole, comes a haunting debut thriller that peels back the pristine façade of Kent's idyllic countryside to reveal its rotting core. MURDER IN THE GARDEN OF ENGLAND is a masterclass in psychological suspense that will keep you guessing until the final, blood-soaked page.
Perfect for fans of Peter James and Ian Rankin, this is the first chapter in a series that will redefine British crime fiction.
Rachel McLean, Alex Smith, Ann Cleeves, and many more!

Story
Lana Fleming’s sister has vanished from the set of TV’s hottest show, and no one seems to care. Desperate for answers, Lana sneaks in as an extra, only to get stranded with Griffin Hart, an A-list action star with a reputation for good abs and bad decisions. Though Griffin didn’t expect to be cast as a librarian’s sidekick in a real-life thriller, he’s weirdly into it—and into her. Even more unsettling—she sees right through his playboy persona. But their meet-cute soon turns deadly when they uncover a Hollywood scandal for the ages.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

SOME THINGS ARE BEST LEFT UNDISTURBED... When a devastating earthquake rocks the earth, it brings something else with it – something ancient, intelligent, and absolutely lethal. As bodies begin piling up in its wake, each death more bizarre than the last, one thing becomes terrifyingly clear: this is only the beginning. From the rubble of the first tremors emerges a threat beyond imagination. A force that's been waiting millions of years to reclaim its dominion. And humanity? We're standing in its way. The ground is shifting. Time is running out. And the apocalypse isn't coming from above...
