“Ferryman” is a story that could easily be ripped from a modern front-page tabloid’s headlines. From the opening chapter of the “Ferryman,” to the last suspenseful scene, Carole Sutton, intertwines a masterful tale of murder, mystery and mayhem.
The novel is set in a small, sleepy town on the coast of Cornwall, England. Carole expertly introduces her characters through an extended weekend sailing event. The storyline is further propelled by the influx of several unsolved, seemingly u More...

If you enjoy crime fiction/murder mystery, you'll love this one. A detective with a conscience, a woman's betrayal and a powerful businessman with a sinister secret are just some of the characters in this tale set around Cornwall in the 1970s.
Five stars, I hear you ask? Well, I did write it myself, so you will have to be judge.

Steven Pengelly went to prison for the murder of a missing woman. When Angela Dupont’s naked body pops up in the river two years later and the pathologist declares she’s only been dead a week, the lead investigator realizes he’s jailed the wrong man.
Detective Inspector Alec Grimstone, experiencing guilt feelings over having pressured a witness whose testimony helped put Pengelly in jail, reopens the case. Before long, similarities begin to surface between this and other open cases.

A book that contains loads of ingredients that are special to me. A love of sailing on a beautiful yacht, murder, mystery and suspense.
The setting is Cornwall in the 70's. Steven (the hero) saves up and buys himself a small yacht that he is crazy about. Up pops a pretty girl that he falls for - who is not quite all she appears to be. When she disappears then all sorts of mayhem occur.
Decadence, sleeze, greed, you name it; a recipe for a real page turner.

This is a good mystery/adventure, set in the 1970's in England. Sutton is a very good writer. Her descriptions are wonderful. The plot is fast-moving and kept me turning the pages.
If you like mysteries, you will like Ferryman.
