About this listen

A dead body keeps no secrets...

An extreme drought hits the Lake District, uncovering a skeleton at the bottom of Thirlmere reservoir. Forensics identify that the body, a young man, must have entered the water with his arms tied behind his back: this was no accidental death. The case quickly becomes personal for DI Kelly Porter when she discovers it's the remains of an old classmate, missing for over twenty years.

A day later, another body is found in a caravan park, its skull brutally caved in. Another former classmate with a troubled history.

Kelly suspects these two crimes are linked. But if she's right, that means there's a ruthless killer somewhere in her community someone who will do anything to keep the truth buried

A brilliantly clever, 'finish-in-one-night' murder mystery starring the hugely popular DI Kelly Porter, set in the stunning mountains and valleys of the Lake District. A must-listen from million copy bestseller Rachel Lynch, for fans of L. J. Ross, Carol Wyer and Angela Marsons.

Totally compelling storyline and characterisation.

I've been quick to complain about inconsistencies in the past, but this one felt more controlled and developed. It was also utterly heartbreaking and after I'd gasped at a shock, and had to relisten to be sure I'd heard right, I actually got a little teary.

Best One Yet.
