Summary
The new instalment in the bestselling Norfolk Murders series!
A family’s secrets lie buried. The time has come to uncover the truth…
When a mud-splattered man staggers from Bacton Wood with a terrifying tale about being buried alive, DS Ashley Knight and her team are called in to investigate. Soon, another victim is found, and more men are missing – all with connections to the well-known Vialli family.
The Major Investigation Team find themselves attempting to untangle a case that stretches from Eastern Europe through to North Norfolk. Along with rookie detective, the whip-smart Hector Fade, Ashley is in a race against time trying to help a family who seem determined to take matters into their own hands. And when Ashley suspects there is a department rat, the stakes get even higher.
As the evidence continues to point in different directions, and as new victims are uncovered thick and fast, Ashley and Hector begin to fear they have finally met their match in a killer too ruthless and clever to be caught.
Bestselling Ross Greenwood is back with a breath-taking thriller, perfect for fans of Mark Billingham, Ian Rankin and Peter James.

The narration is amazing
I’d listened to the first 2 books back to back and had this on pre-order. So after a gap of several months I listened to Bacton Wood cold. The narration made everyone so familiar again within the first couple of minutes. Bacton wood story has even more twists and turns and plots that come from nowhere, and reappear several hours later
It’s a great listen

A whirlwind of a story
Certainly learned more than I expected in this book.
Looking forward to the next book in the series.
Now what can I share without handing out spoilers?
The story is well rounded; a rollercoaster of emotions and made me change direction so fast I got whiplash.
And did I mention I can’t wait for the next book… I don’t know how this author can write such horrible characters alongside side those whom I would love to be my friends… but that is what has been done.
Brilliant.

Likeable characters and engrossing plot
It was fun to listen to a book set in the place i grew up in! I know these woods like the back of my hand! This book evokes the place and people very well. Finished this book in a day, looking forward to the next. Get writing, Ross!

Great characters in Norfolk
Ross Greenwood crafts a gripping narrative, filled with twists and turns that kept me hooked from start to finish in this third book of The Norfolk Murders Series. The characters are multi-dimensional, each with their own working lives, loves and ambitions. The story unfolds through multiple perspectives, allowing for a deeper exploration of each character's outlook on life and death, adding layers to the complex murder hunt. As the gruesome plot unravels, there are times I can understand the killer’s motivations and even sympathise (is that allowed?) The chase escalates, leading to a conclusion that will leave readers wanting more. "Death in Bacton Wood" is a must-read for fans of suspense thrillers, with a compelling cast of characters. One of the very many reasons I enjoyed this book is because it is set around the area in Norfolk where we now live. Looking forward to the next one, to not only enjoy the murder mystery, but to see how the lives pan out for the main characters.

Worth the wait
The first book I have had in my wish list and looked forward to the release date. Loved being surrounded by the familiar characters again...another gripping, twisting plot bit also a comfort listen! That's an unusual Venn diagram but Ross has done it!

Great story with many threads that all linked together.
Love the characters with the right balance of human emotion without being over the top.
As always - superb narration!
