Dead in the Water

Written by Ann Granger

Narrated by Judith Boyd

The fourth murky murder in the Campbell and Carter Mysteries.

As Christmas approaches in the sleepy English village of Weston Saint Ambrose, the rains bring the wettest winter on record and the farmer's fields are submerged. The water uncovers all manner of things, however, including a dead body, dredged up from its watery grave.

Snagging on the jetty of Isolde Evans, the reclusive writer is shocked to recognize the victim. And she's not the only one. When Inspector Jess Campbell investigates, she recognizes the body of Courtney Higson, a local barmaid with a doting, ex-con father, Terry. He is set on finding his daughter's killer, and Jess must get to the bottom of this quickly, before he takes the law into his own hands . . .

Reviews for Dead in the Water

[lara335 · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

The body of a young woman is found in floodwater. Pedestrian village police procedural. The characters didn’t really hold my attention, but the red herrings did divert my attention away from the murderer.
