From two-million-selling author Joy Ellis comes one of the most eagerly awaited mysteries this year.

One moonlit night, the bodies of two young people are discovered lying entwined on a blanket in the woods. The young man is clutching a red rose. It appears to be a lovers' suicide pact....

Until Detective Nikki Galena and DS Joseph Easter look more closely. Romeo and Juliet, as they decide to call them, were murdered somewhere else and brought to the woods. But why?

Then another young couple are found dead, again beautifully posed as lovers. And Nikki knows they have a twisted serial killer on their hands. Who are the next victims?

Everyone has secrets. But some people will kill to keep them.

It's good to be amongst friends again

Reviewed in Australia on 28 May 2021

This book was more convoluted than the others have been and finding the baddies more difficult. It would have helped had Nikki and her team had been able to identify the victims.
There are prejudices coming out of the woodwork all over the place and it takes a few clever people to work out fact from fiction.
Nikki's mother is in over her head with her own mysteries and trying hard to keep them away from Nikki in case she was discovered and found herself in deep water.
All in all it's a great read and certainly worth the hours to read it.

Scarily real

Do you like the series, this one was not only intrigue, murder etc but also covered the trappings of a mania more often than not affects innocence lives.
The character development in the serious that’s good and I do feel like I know them all personally.

Love love love these characters… they all bring a special and unique gift to the stories. Joy Ellis is an excellent story teller with a touch of wickedness… brilliant combination!

I throughly enjoyed Secrets on the Fens, as I have all Joy Ellis books, I have been able to read so far. All are full of great twists and turns and always gripping. Hopefully we will get more of these from Joy Ellis.

Another 'all nighter' from Joy Ellis, a very gifted story teller. No 12 in the highly popular Detective Inspector Nicki Galena Series. I loved every page and am so looking forward to No 13.

A bit gentler than her previous books in this series, a slower pace, but nonetheless very enjoyable. Hoping for a book 13 where Nikki Galena goes on another hunt.

Joy Ellis .. what an incredible imagination she has. A great story line, with a couple of side stories. No one could predict the ending. A trifle long winded but very enjoyable. Looking forward to reading more of Joy Ellis's books

Captured audience from the get go, but do wish the vulgar language could be kept out of the text.
Otherwise a good read.

Definitely not for me.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 March 2021

I have read and enjoyed all of the Joy Ellis "Fens" books and was looking forward to this one. However, for the first time in a very long time I admitted defeat and by page 165 decided I just couldn't read any more.
I did not like the introduction of Eve and her cronies in an earlier book but assumed they were just part of the single story. In this book they are a total distraction and I have no interest whatsoever in their ridiculous activities - their inclusion totally spoils the book for me which is a great shame. Hopefully the next book will revert to the excellent main characters and leave out the "padding" of Eve and friends. If this is not the case then my Fenland reading will sadly come to an end.

I have read all of Joy's books over a number of years now and have given 4 or 5 star ratings for most ... apart from three - Guide Star (sickly) The Dying Light (poor story) and this one (just appalling!) I stopped reading it at around 50%. I fell asleep too many times reading this book, whereas I cannot normally put her books down until they are finished! There are too many characters; reading it is like wading through treacle. The Miss Marple element is completely unnecessary and is distracting. Joy has also recently started to introduce the "F" word and other unnecessary elements of bad language ... things are going down hill Joy ... get a grip and return to your previous form.

Too many characters for me

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 February 2021

Verified Purchase

I have always loved all books by Ruth Ellis. I have never given below a 5 star I don't think but I found this very slow, too many different names and characters to remember and as for the side story with Eve and Wendy going to The Lakes on a mission. Very dragged out and tedious. I actually nearly gave up as I kept falling asleep but I did carry on. Ending was not forecast by me but to me, my opinion only of course, it had no spark just droned on and repeated things over and over as padding. I was really disappointed.

Lots of characters!

This is book #12 in the DI Nikki Galena series as Joseph and our usual chums return to solve the murders of 2 young couples and the abduction of their friend Mickey.
In parallel, Nikki's mother Eve, helps solve the 100 year old mystery of the disappearance of a local artist when visiting the Lake District.
I found it a compelling read though the sheer number of different characters did rather confuse me at times!
If you liked previous Nikki Galena tales, you'll probably enjoy this one too.

Sadly not a Galena classic

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 March 2021

Verified Purchase

Having read all of the previous Nikki Galena books, I eagerly anticipated this latest Joy Ellis offering. For me, compared to the original hard-hitting Galena thrillers, this one is not so much a thriller as a twee little whodunnit. It’s not the longest book in the world so adding a second sub plot involving Galena’s amateur sleuth mother and her pals merely diluted the main plot and, for me, made the whole thing disjointed and slightly juvenile. So much more could have been written about the goth murders to intrigue the reader, but every time that plot became interesting, we meandered into three ageing ‘Miss Marples’ solving a years old mystery. Even the main characters, Galena and Easter have become almost sedentary and easy going and needed inspiration from the amateur sleuths before they got their act in gear. Sorry, I so wanted to like this but couldn’t. If there’s another Galena effort please get back to basics and lose the embarrassing Eve and Wendy bits.
