Second in the Elversford Mysteries set in Essex.
When Sarah Hedley discovers a dead body in a crashed car she has an unwelcome insight into her husband Detective Inspector Hal Hedley’s work.
The car has been hidden in undergrowth for seventeen years. The body, however, is fresh. When DI Hedley’s team investigate the suspicious death, they discover it was murder, which makes the placing of the body in the car bizarrely significant… but to whom?
Hedley’s sergeant Fiona Connor is tasked with much of the work, but murder is the least of Fiona's problems at the moment.
Sarah Hedley’s involvement with the case doesn’t end with the discovery of the body, and she finds herself unable to leave well alone.
Also by the author "Death in Spigg's Wood", first in the Elversford Mysteries series set in Essex; and "Wargeld & Other Stories", a collection of short stories, some crime and some lighter hearted tales.
Death in Flitbury Marshes Elversford Mysteries Book 2 eBook Linda Gruchy
I read this book immediately after reading "Death in Sprigg's Wood". In this one the main police characters are fleshed out so that the reader feels more personally involved. The scene of the crimes is unusual and almost a character in itself. I next went on to read "Burden of Proof" which explained and put to rest one mystery which permeated through both books. I hope, though, that it doesn't mean the end of a possible promising series. As with "Death in Sprigg's Wood", I felt obliged to deduct one star because of objectionable language, despite it being in context.Product details

Death in Flitbury Marshes Elversford Mysteries Book 2 eBook Linda Gruchy Reviews
I love the complexity of Ms Gruchy's novels and this was no exception. Well-researched and described, her style is concise with no surplus verbiage. Immensely readable and gripping. Off to read the next one!
Death in Flitbury Marshes is the successor to Death in Spiggs Wood, however it is a completely stand alone story. The police characters are in both, but it's not important to know their history from Spiggs.
Without giving the main parts of the plot away, it is about a murder where the body is left in a strange place in the marsh. The marsh itself gains a character of its own. I really wanted to look it up on internet maps and photos to see it, even though it doesn't exist.
Spiggs was set mainly from the "victim's" point of view, whereas Flitbury is more from the police's. I think I preferred this book.
Thinking back, these books are very "Law and Order". Most police procedurals end with "You're nicked", whereas Linda's books continue through to the courtroom.
I usually comment on readability and Linda's writing is very readable. This is a police procedural with a gruesome killing, but this book is not gory and gritty like some can be. There is a side story with Fiona that I thought was interesting too.
Regarding the ending and the approach to the ending, I think it was well written with no loose ends and was satisfactory. Some books (especially adventure ones) I get bored and rush through just to make sure that no one interesting dies, but with this one, the story continues to a good resolution.
