Description

You can hide, but you can't run... When the body of a church warden is discovered hanging from the belfry of a village church, DI Tom Janssen and his team must investigate the circumstances that led to his death. Whilst navigating the fallout from the conclusion of their previous case, the Norfolk CID team is under intense scrutiny with another police force investigating their recent conduct. Some people would like nothing more than to see the team fail. With no clear motive for murder or a reason to take his own life, the team have little to go on. Meanwhile, a hit and run accident on the Sandringham Estate leaves a pregnant woman in hospital and when the fleeing vehicle is located - abandoned beside a coastal sailing club - the investigating team find more than they bargained for when they look inside. The hunt is on for a brutal murderer whose motives and goals are unknown, and when other interested parties appear in the area the stakes are raised further. Just who are the hunters, who is watching, and, more importantly, who is the prey? Watch and Prey is the latest book in the Amazon 1 bestselling series, by British crime writer, J M Dalgliesh, the multi-million selling author of The Misty Isle and Dark Yorkshire books. Read more

A stunner!
Format: Kindle
This is quite possibly the best one yet. The story had me on the back foot the entire time. I read straight through because I couldn't put it down. One of the best parts is the author uses real places in the story. Using Google maps was I able to visit every town, village and area that the characters went. I visited the church that the first victim was found. Very lovely place. Then I went to the local pub where the lady who found the body waited to meet the detectives. It was depicted perfectly right down to the color scheme and placement along the road. I looked around inside the pub and perused the menu. It felt like I could have sat down and had a pint. I visited each site used and looked around at the roads, nearby venues and attractions. What fun! I'll probably never get to Kings Lynn and surrounding area but after reading this book I feel like I just may have. Thanks for the great story and the enchanting journey. ... show more

Highly Recommended Title and Series
Format: Kindle
WATCH AND PREY is Book #15 in J.M. Dalgliesh’s Hidden Norfolk series. When the body of a church warden is discovered hanging from the belfry of a village church, DI Tom Janssen and his Team are called to investigate. While navigating the fallout from the conclusion of their previous case, the Norfolk CID Team is under intense scrutiny and ‘some’ people would like to see them fail in their present investigation. Meanwhile a Hit-and-Run accident leaves a pregnant woman in hospital and when the fleeing vehicle is located, the Team make a startling discovery when they look inside. Brutal murderers are targeting and hunting and watching their ‘prey’. Who will be their next target? What do they want and why? This is a very violent and disturbing investigation. The Team have no suspects or motives for the killings. Of course, there are dark secrets involved and DI Janssen makes a decision that could end his career. A very suspenseful plot. **** ... show more

Watch and Pray book review
Format: Kindle
The plot of this novel is a bit more intricate than most of the books in this series. There are some unusual characters and unexpected casualties. The writing is clear and concise, as usual. It was satisfying to read.

One of the best in series.
Format: Kindle
As the Hidden Norfolk series progressed, and I was a fan from the first, Tom and all the characters on this small town rural. force have grown deeper and more complex in their relationships with each other and with the community they police. Their knowledge and empathy make these mysteries of violent complex crimes so compelling. JM Dalgliesh's latest thriller, Watch and Prey, counts as one his best. Can't wait Gor the next. ... show more

Excellent Story
Format: Kindle
It has been awhile since I read the previous books in the series so unfortunately I had forgotten much. Nevertheless, as a virtual stand alone for me at this point, I did not miss the earlier details. An exciting and unusual plot that I would never have guessed the solution to. What will happen to Tom now? It is not looking good. 😋 ... show more

Not up to Par
Format: Kindle
I have read all of this author's deceptive books and loved this series in particular. This one just seemed contrived and illogical. The main characters of the series just seem so have faded in depth. Tom and Alice seem to be too good to be true. The ending was baffling as was idea that they could use Eric for a decoy??? Why would the villain torture and murder two of the innocent victims after we learn of his motive in the end? I just loved this series initially but the last several have been disappointing. Could be Mr. Dagliesh is spreading himself thin with his other ventures. I now love the Duncan MCAdam books much more. ... show more

Enjoyable but unanswered questions
Format: Kindle
This series is one of my favorites since both plotting and characterizations are superb. I have to admit that the ending left me with many questions, aside from the shock of Tom's last action (which no doubt will be resolved in the next eagerly awaited book). The action in the prologue was clearly related to the denouement at the end but exactly who were the characters? Just how did the killer know what Tom and his team were planning? How did he get the information? I kept hoping that the information would be provided. The location of northern Norfolk is wonderfully described.......do that many nefarious folks really wander around the king's estate of Sandringham? As it is, it was a fast paced read. Can't wait for the next book. ... show more
