THE MOST GRIPPING CRIME THRILLER OF 2020 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "It's a non-stop page turner" "Brilliantly exciting, nail-biting read" "I didn’t see the end coming" Detectives Rowan Jackman and Marie Evans are told that their IT boss has disappeared. They soon suspect foul play. Orla Cracken, known as Orac, is no ordinary techie; she was once a field agent traveling abroad undercover, working for the government. Meanwhile DC Robbie Melton discovers that two people, both urban explorers, have mysteriously disappeared while out exploring abandoned buildings. One went missing at a disused airfield, but was it a military base, or was it civilian? The gruesome discovery of their decaying bodies found hanging in ancient church ruins bursts the case wide open, and Jackman and Evans are under pressure to find the killer. It soon becomes clear that the murderer is targeting urban explorers, but why is he determined to track down and torture these innocent people, and how is the case connected to Orac’s mysterious past, still shrouded in secrecy?

I have read and loved all of Joy's books. I particularly have a soft spot for Nikki and Joseph in the NIKKI GALENA series. This book is book 7 in the JACKMAN & EVANS series. Other books in this series are Book 1: THE MURDERER’S SON Book 2: THEIR LOST DAUGHTERS Book 3: THE FOURTH FRIEND Book 4: THE GUILTY ONES Book 5: THE STOLEN BOYS Book 6: THE PATIENT MAN Book 7: THEY DISAPPEARED Based in Saltern-Le-Fen Di Rowan Jackman and Ds Marie Evans make a formidable team. Another fantastic police duo created by Joy Ellis, along with their team they are faced with a 'Disappearance' and it's one of their own. Orla Cracken has not turned up to work. This is very unusual Orla lives in her little cave in the basement of the police station. Marie is the only person that Orla has ever really spoken to and opened up to, so Marie has cause to worry around Orla's no show. When Urban explorers start to go missing it soon becomes apparent that there could be a link to Orla' disappearance . Marie feels she has to go to higher up bodies in the force to raise her concerns. Her concerns are right, Orla was once a government agent and her being missing could possible be due to this and very, very serious. The more you get in to this story the more engaged you become, you realise this isn't a read you can put down and pick up at any time. this is a book you have to keep reading, and keep reading, the more you read the deeper in you go, this book was a first class engrossing. There is so much going on in this book that I feel to mention any of it would give away too much of the plot. I wouldn't like to spoil it for anyone. What I will say is, it gets all the stars and more and I can recommend this book to anyone who likes a gripping read. Personally for me I would say reading them in order is best, but if you don't bother about reading in order this could be read as a standalone.
