Publisher's Summary
Matt and Liz may have retired from the police, but that doesn't guarantee a quiet life.
An abandoned carpet bag full of mysterious handwritten notes. A body in a marshy lagoon.
Matt is intrigued when his partner Liz brings home an old carpet bag she found dumped in the local library. It contains a pile of mysterious handwritten notes. Liz is convinced the bag belongs to Old Molly, a local woman who lives on the streets.
The following day, a body is discovered in a marshy lagoon. It's Old Molly. Suffocated with an expensive men's handkerchief.
Molly clearly knew something that got her killed. Liz believes she was trying to tell them something important. She calls on her nephew David to help decipher the carpet bag notes.
Meanwhile Matt is hired to find teenage runaway Liam Cooper. Liam has been missing for ten days now, and Matt has a very bad feeling about him. A few days later, a second body is discovered in an old barn out on the fens.
Matt and Liz must piece together the cryptic clues Molly has left for them before more people die. The answers lead to the remote fenland village of Marshdyke-St-Mary—and a series of shocking secrets stretching back many years.

Riveting
Absolutely loved the tale of the bag lady. Twists and turns and then more suspense. I loved how the stories intertwined with each other. Shame we didn’t find out about the 3 kids
Excellent book

A little confusing
As always Joy Ellis writes a great story. However I found it a little confusing because the last book I read Liz was dead, and now she’s back in this book

A story with twists and turns to keep one interested.
The story teller performed a range of accents and used his vocalisation to best depict the story.
