2025:  A knife is found at the bottom of a hidden lake in the Norfolk Broads

  • Genre: Crime

What you need to know before your trail

It starts with the knife. Found at the bottom of a hidden lake in the Norfolk Broads, covered in blood and heart tissue so fresh the water hasn’t yet washed it all away. What salvage diver Cam Killick has found is a murder weapon from a very recent crime – but how do you solve a murder without a body?

The remoteness of the setting is itself a clue. Only a handful of people know the location of the lake, let alone how to access it. But no sooner have Cam and DS Claire Rogers started working through this ready-made suspect pool than one of them disappears.

The ripples from Cam’s discovery have disturbed a dangerous predator, one who knows the water even better than Cam himself. The question now is what they want – and how many more people will die before Cam can stop them?

Travel Guide

Norfolk Broads

The rural landscape with the water, broads and the remote ghostly feel is well evoked throughout the novel.  A story about a diver who examines cold cases is just inspired and this is one that you really need to dive into if you excuse the pun.

The Norfolk Broads is Britain’s largest protected wetland, a National Park featuring a unique network of shallow lakes (broads) and rivers (like the Bure, Yare, Ant, Waveney) in Norfolk and Suffolk.
