About this listen
'An author who never disappoints' Reader review *****
Detective Inspector Joe Plantagenet returns in the gripping crime series set in Yorkshire, from million-copy bestselling author Kate Ellis.
The quaint Yorkshire village of Eaglethorpe was a sanctuary for famous TV personality, Lexi Verity, away from prying eyes and camera flashes. But a life led in the spotlight can create envy in its shadows.
When Lexi is found dead in her swimming pool, DI Joe Plantagenet and DCI Emily Thwaite are called to investigate. The murder of the celebrity is front-page news and the pressure is on the Eborby CID to find the killer.
As Joe and Emily unravel the last moments of Lexi's life, they discover various motives for murder - as well as events in Lexi's distant past that would horrify the public if the facts were ever revealed.
Sinister secrets are also haunting the residents of the ancient cathedral city of Eborby nearby and Joe must decide which lead to follow, before a killer strikes again.

'The charms of North Yorkshire - whether that's the historic city or the rolling countryside - provide a stunning backdrop to this complex, thrilling mystery which includes excellent police procedural, immaculate research, stand-out characters, and the sort of good old-fashioned investigative work that marks out Ellis's crime novels' Lancashire Evening Post ©2026 Kate Ellis
