FIRE ON THE FENS a gripping crime thriller with a huge twist by Joy Ellis

From multi-million-selling Joy Ellis, one of Britain's best-loved crime writers, with over twenty number-one bestsellers.


Meet Detective Nikki Galena. She will stop at nothing to avenge her daughter. Under the brooding skies of the Lincolnshire Fens, she pursues the most vicious criminals.


The Fens are burning and Detective Nikki faces a cat-and-mouse battle with a killer arsonist.


Someone is lighting fires. First they target homes and businesses, but then a body is found at one of the crime scenes.


More fires are lit. And at each one a single person dies. But the victims have led spotless lives and apparently there's no connection between them.


Meanwhile, the town is facing a very peculiar threat from a group of sinister Satanists led by a charismatic businessman.


Who is burning with anger, and can Nikki stop them before anyone else dies?


The Setting

The Lincolnshire Fens: great open skies brood over marshes, farmland, and nature reserves. It is not easy terrain for the Fenland Constabulary to police: with remote Fen villages, dangerous and often misty lanes, and poor telephone coverage. There are still villages where the oldest residents have never set foot outside their own farmland. A visit to the nearest town is a major event. But it has a strange airy beauty to it, and above it all are the biggest skies you've ever seen.


This totally gripping mystery is perfect for fans of L.J. Ross, Angela Marsons, J.D. Kirk, Elly Griffiths and Ann Cleeves.

Joy Ellis grew up in Kent but moved to London when she won an apprenticeship with the prestigious Mayfair florist, Constance Spry Ltd. Having run her own flower shop in Weybridge for many years, Ellis then worked as a bookseller until a trip to the Greek island of Skyros, where she took part in a writer's workshop with Sue Townsend, encouraged her to write her own books.
