Whispered Bones (A DI Fenella Sallow Crime Thriller Book 2)

These books aren’t going to. Hence your life, but they are great stories. Highly recommend for relaxing page turners with good characters.

Enjoy this book very much. Plenty of suspicious characters, and lots of twists and turns. I honestly have no clue until it was revealed at the end, which is quite enjoyable. My wife recommended this series and now I’m gonna have to thank her!

Almost stopped reading, afraid of where the story was going. Really good read, and completely unpredictable. On to the next one!

So many great characters. I find out more about the towns people with each book. The fantastic scenes, the descriptive way the story plays out. All keep me so engaged..... Good stuff. Great series

The characters are well written but the "who done it" in the end is disappointing. In books 1 and 2. It felt like it was thrown out as a conclusion when the protagonist could have been further developed as a possibility. Disapointed.

Filled with characters; twists, turns, false leads to the solution at the very end.

I just finished Whispered Bones, book 2 of the DI Fenella Sallow crime series. The writing moves effortlessly through the details of the crime and Fenella’s thoughts and actions. I could let go and trust N C Lewis to take me through the various pieces of the puzzle and not once did I figure it out. The denouement was tight, realistic and tidy. No loose ends, with the familiar core characters surviving until another mystery. Thoroughly enjoyable, engaging, and comfortable as an old shoe!

It had my interest from the beginning. Plenty of unexpected twists to keep the interest. I read it in one siitting

Love a good British mystery. I can always picture what they look like which makes me enjoy them more. Descriptive but not over done.

A prostitute called Viv Gill is murdered in a village called St Bees. DI Fenella Sallow goes to the morgue to get feedback and her usually pathologist is on leave. The replacement pathologist thinks it is the work of escaped serial killers Henry Hamilton Perkins, nicknamed Mr Shred. The superintendent, Veronica Jeffery is forced from above to bring in a more experienced DI called Tom Moss who is old school and completely sexist. Jeffery brings in as consultant Joy Hall who is a psychologist at the gaol where Perkins was incarcerated. Joy suggests places where Perkins might strike again and Tom Moss sets up a trap using new Detective Beth Finn as bait. On the night in question Joy Hall is attacked and another woman is murdered. Jeffery sacks Moos, who the team really hate and puts Fenella in charge. The original pathologist returns from leave and tells Fenella that he doesn't think the killer is Perkins. There are quite few questionable characters in the village, such as the Vicker, the village PC Syd Hoon, and the village shop manager. All could be possible suspects, but it turns out to be someone totally unexpected.

So glad I ran into this series! I’m already downloading the next in the series. Rich characters, great tension, engaging plot

Enjoyed the story and characters in this. A good read and a good few red herrings to throw us off.
