Whisper Fen Holds Dark Secrets

As the mists roll over the fens and enigmatic lights twinkle in the distance, only the locals know their way along the hidden paths through the mysterious watery terrain of one of England's most beautiful and sometimes dangerous places.

Detective Matt Ballard may have retired but there's still plenty going on in the fens to keep him busy.

Someone trashes an old lady's garden and daubs her isolated cottage with hateful graffiti. Emilia Swain seems to be totally harmless, so why is she being targeted?

Matt's best friend Will and his wife Kate moved to Holland House to put their past behind them. But Kate's mental state is deteriorating and she's obsessed with the tragic history of the house and an old doll she finds in the garden.

And why is Kate suddenly friends with a loner who haunts the fens? Has the dreadful past come back to haunt the present owners?

Former detectives Matt and Liz want to help their friends and neighbors. But how can you help people who don't want to be helped?

I love this author, and the narrator and all of the wonderful characters from the Fenn. But this book drones on with sadness and despair from almost beginning to the end. The sun never shines, and there is little to no hope. People suffering from mental illness should avoid this book. the ending, like the beginning, was dreary and sad. I think I would have more fun getting a root canal.

A dismal story

I really enjoyed the cadence of this book, I love all of Joys books that I have listened to thus far but this one definitely had a different cadence and there is such a plot twist at the end

A twist you never expected

Not as good as his other books.
I got bored with the story. The ending was not satisfying at all.

In a clear departure from her usual police procedural format, Joy Ellis explored the effects of long-term isolation on a couple whose focus was narrowed to just each other, to renovating a house and to sinking into mutually declining mental health. The word "Covid" never appears, but the 2020 publication date sets the story in a particular period. I felt the narrative was highly redundant and the plot was less interesting than most of Ellis' other stories. Still, the ending surprised me.

Not my favorite by Ms Ellis, but is a good listen. I always love the setting she writes about. The Fen is like one of the characters.

Kept my interest

I kept listening thinking this book would get better...but the story line was super depressing...
I felt I was circling the drain during the last few minutes of this book... Joy Ellis is an amazing author & I cannot believe that Joy Ellis actually wrote this story... Poor Will is totally screwed...from page 1 of this book... Tough Matt Ballard shouldn't have even been added to this book... Matt played the role of a supportive friend but his true character was nowhere in these pages... This book is about mental illness... which is a horrible disease that often takes over & kidnaps a peson's life...That in itself is criminal but over the course of the book there are several other criminal's that are briefly mentioned...but not a lot of time is spent in this story on those evil character's...even though the worst 2 are eventually caught which is a relief...their criminal empire was vaguely touched on leaving an abundance of unanswered questions....there are just so many gray areas in this listen...I feel drained, depressed & weary....I wish I wouldn't have purchased this...it is however, only my opinion...but I really do not believe Joy Ellis wrote this... Maybe it should be a stand alone book & Liz & Matt's names should be changed...

Not believing Joy Ellis wrote this book...

Another wonderful book and listen by Joy Ellis. Mr. Davies did a better job reading this book than the previous, perhaps I am getting used to his voice, although I cannot say for certain.
Either way the book, and the storyline were engaging, a real page turner.

I find Joy Ellis to be an amazing writer.

This is yet again an amazing Joy Ellis book. I was so engrossed I binged it twice. Perfect narration, exactly as written. Surprise ending swept me away.

maybe it's easier to bear in print but the manic depressive moods of one of the characters were very unpleasant to follow in an audio book. Furthermore, the build up of threat was somehow very anxiety inducing but not exciting. Had to stop about a third through.

Couldn't finish it
