Publisher's Summary
Matt and Liz may have retired from the police, but that doesn't guarantee a quiet life.
A deserted building. A face in the window. A face that shouldn't be there.
Photography student Toby Unsworth has found the location for the perfect night-time shoot. A cobbled street in the old part of Fenfleet. Later, when he looks at the images on his laptop, he thinks he sees a woman's face in the window of an old, disused building. He asks his housemate Alex to come and take a look . . .
Two days later, Toby and Alex are dead. Carbon monoxide poisoning. An unfortunate accident. But Alex's mother doesn't believe it. She hires Matt and Liz to find out the truth.
Meanwhile, nine-year-old Simon is missing. He was staying with his Aunt Jessie in a cottage on the edge of the marsh. And his older sister Kellie is increasingly worried.
Matt and Liz's investigations reveal that something very big and very dangerous has descended on the small market town of Fenfleet. And if they don't get to the bottom of it, more deaths will follow.

Good story spoilt by narrator 😒
I have listened to all this series but honestly can't remember feeling so irritated by the voice! Another reviewer said it perfectly about how annoying it was, I could only think of the word "pompous" 😅 but yes so over the top and cringey 😖 and just not suited for this type of book...

Excellent Narrator
Excellent story, Matthew Lloyd Davies as the narrator was the appropriate person to read “Trick of the Night”.

The twists
Loved it all but I love everything that Joy Ellis writes, she just has the "truth" knack

Trick Of TheNight
I enjoyed listening to this one, just as much as all the rest, Of Joy Ellis books, Although at times Mathew Lloyd Davies did sound a little pompous at times, did a great job, and I look forward to hearing more from this Author,

Another great J. Ellis’ masterpiece
I really liked listening to this book. Loved the twists and turns and loved the narrators voice. Couldn’t put it down once I was into the story.
