THE NIGHT THIEF (Jackman & Evans #8) by Joy Ellis - Crime

Rowan and Marie have rather a strange case on their hands. A man is slipping

through small open windows “ visiting” women and leaving without a trace. They

think this sounds like their old friend Ratty who appears to have rather a

compulsion for this sort of thing. Then things take a turn for the worse when an

woman is found dead at the bottom of her stairs and Rattu swears blind that

he would never touch anyone but it also appears that pictures from each house

are being taken. There have been reports of a man hanging around school

gates. Could the two be linked and if so how?

I love Joy’s books and I'm always amazed at how someone can plan out such

intricate, interwoven plots with twists and turns , subplots and even maybe a

red herring or two and make it all come together so seamlessly in a

wonderful entertaining read. True brilliance! They are so cleverly thought out

and put together with characters that I can't help but love that truly come

alive through the pages. 

A brilliantly entertaining, very cleverly thought out read.

"I was born in Kent but spent most of my working life in London and Surrey. I was an apprentice florist to Constance Spry Ltd, a prestigious Mayfair shop that throughout the sixties and seventies teemed with both royalty and ‘real’ celebrities. What an eye-opener for a working-class kid from the Garden of England! I swore then, probably whilst I was scrubbing the floor or making the tea, that I would have a shop of my own one day. It took until the early eighties, but I did it. Sadly the recession wiped us out, and I embarked on a series of weird and wonderful jobs; the last one being a bookshop manager. Surrounded by books all day, getting to order whatever you liked, and being paid for it! Oh bliss! And now I live in a village in the Lincolnshire Fens with my partner, Jacqueline, a highly decorated retired police officer, and our four barking mad Springer spaniels. If I do get any spare time, which is rare these days, my one relaxation is painting, especially using soft pastels. We have been here for twenty years now and although I’ll never be a true ‘Yeller Belly’, a native born to this county, I have adopted it as my own. I love the mists, the big skies and the endless waterways. All my books are set here on the Fens, and why not?
