What to expect

When a driver dies during a glamourous classic car event at her family's estate, Dr Nell Ward is in a race against time to uncover the truth and prevent the killer from making a speedy getaway...

Back in her natural habitat, Dr Nell Ward heads to a woodland pond to survey local newt populations. She's shocked to discover a car submerged in the water - with the driver dead behind the wheel.

Nell recognises the dead man as professional racing driver, and tabloid love rat, Jack Rafferty, whose performance on (and off) Finchmere's racetrack had earned him enemies.

Suspecting this isn't the tragic accident it appears DI James Clark calls upon Nell and her ecological skills to help find the murderer. But she soon finds that more lurks under the surface than she could ever have imagined. Despite the danger, Nell is determined to dredge up the truth from the murky depths of this case, before it's too late...

Fairly good plot to this book, with several twists. However, Im still waiting for the ending... not to disapoint others, feel that there needed to be another chapter to finish it off. Now it could be that there is another book in pipeline to cover this. But would have thought that if this was case then could have been mentioned...plus, epilogue, goes into in my opinion way too much detail on the topics detailed in the book, not sure why, as several of these were already emphasised previously...
Would I listen to another. Yes, feel her storyline is somewhat unique as are her characters, and especially since tgey run thriughout the books
