Lady's Well: A DCI Ryan Mystery (The DCI Ryan Mysteries Book 20)

Product Information

It is worth noting that while the DCI Ryan books are a series featuring recurring characters like DCI Ryan, his girlfriend Anna Taylor and veteran DS Frank Phillips, many of the novels can be read as standalones. After visiting Lindisfarne, the author was so thoroughly impressed by the atmosphere of the Island that she couldn’t believe no one had written a crime thriller set on the location. I have listened to all of the DC Ryan books on audible and each time I finish one I can’t wait to listen to the next one.
