When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time...

When a woman's body is found in the sea at Blakeney Point with a single blow to the head, DI Tom Janssen and his team must work out who wanted her dead and why? What would drive someone to murder an elderly woman in such a savage and callous manner?

A formidable woman, a Watcher of the local nature reserve, who dedicated her life to preserving her natural surroundings has made many friends along the way… and even more dangerous enemies. A veteran campaigner – just how did she manage to succeed against all the odds when facing those with far greater resources than her own.

Meanwhile, a man is found murdered in his kitchen showing no signs of having put up a fight. This second case brings murder a little too close to home for the entire team. Tom finds himself questioning the motives of those closest to him and he must face the uncomfortable reality that you never truly know those around you.

The team must keep secrets from one another, straining their bonds of friendship in order to catch a ruthless killer before they are able to strike again...

Set within the mysterious beauty of coastal Norfolk, this fast-paced British detective novel is a dark murder mystery with a little humour and a touch of romance, one that will keep you guessing until the very end when the final shocking twist is revealed.

The Dead Call is the sixth novel in the Hidden Norfolk series of thrillers from Amazon number one bestselling crime writer, JM Dalgliesh, the author of the Dark Yorkshire books. Perfect for fans of LJ Ross, JD Kirk, Angela Marsons, Joy Ellis and Damien Boyd.

Kept interest throughout. The main detective has to work with interesting restrictions. He triumphs in the end and leaves one with a satisfied feeling.
Looked for next book by author but turned off by similar start to story. Sorry now looking for different start!

An excellent, involving read

Reviewed in Australia on 1 November 2020

Very much enjoyed this addition to the Tom Janssen series. A really nice blend of Toms personal life and his police life, it’s well written with some great plot directions.. The characters are developing well and very likeable and I always enjoy the countryside and town descriptions, it makes me feel like I’ve almost been there. As always, the pace is just right and keeps me reading, I couldn’t put it down.

Thrilling! Best Yet!

Reviewed in Australia on 3 November 2020

Best Yet! Two murders. An old woman and a professional man. Close by but seemingly no connection. Pressure is put on the small closely knit police team when one of them could be too involved. Relationships are threatened, emotions run high and judgments are made in this thrilling mystery where you will not see the end coming! A must read from the amazing Jason Dalgleish!

Great addition to a spellbinding series.

Reviewed in Australia on 3 November 2020

What an excellent novel. J M Dalgliesh has really stepped up with this one. Interesting and complicated topics make for an intricate plot that hold the reader until the very end. The depth of narrative for each scenario and character is wonderful. Just loved this addition to the Norolk series. Well done, highly recommended.

Another case for Tom Janssen, but so much closer to home.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 November 2020

Verified Purchase

This series by JM Dalgleish is of a high quality, the stories well written, the characters realistic in their actions and motives. This is the fifth book set in Norfolk.
A woman, Mary, is found dead in the sea at Blakeney Harbour.
She is an activist looking out for and protecting the fragile coastal marshland habitat along the north Norfolk coast. Nearby, a journalist is found murdered in his cottage.
At first these two incidents seem unrelated but the man is the ex husband of Alice and Alice is partner to DCI Tom Jansen so he’s not allowed to investigate.
To make matters worse Alice was at the cottage earlier and was seen by the neighbours.
Tom investigates Mary’s death but is increasingly suspicious that there are ties linking an energy company, Mary the activist and the journalist.
Is Alice involved? Why was she at the cottage of her ex? The mystery is solved though the actual perpetrators are not who you might think!
I can thoroughly recommend the book and I enjoyed it so much I read it through in one sitting. Please do read the series, though each of the books work well as stand alone novels.

Another brilliant addition to the Hidden Norfolk series

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 November 2020

Verified Purchase

This is another beautifully scripted book from Mr. Dalgliesh. It is set around two murders in Norfolk. One victim is the ex husband of DI Jansen and the other a self appointed wildlife warden. The story has a few interesting sub plots. Are the murders related? Is DI Jansen's partner a suspect? There is a realism to all the characters. None of them has too much emotional baggage which can be irritating. They are all thoroughly believable with the same home lives that most of us have with the same ups and downs. This makes them appear, to me, a lot more realistic. All in all, another extremely good book.

Great read

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 November 2020

Thoroughly enjoyed this book and the series of books. Others have described the story so I won't say more than as ever the author makes you feel for every character and every twist and turn is believable. Having said that, I hope the next book in the series, which I have ordered, leaves Tom's private life out of it. I want to read a crime novel not a romance novel; I really don't care about the private lives of the main characters as more often than not it's padding and it just gets in the way of the story.

The latest in the Wild Norfolk series does not disappoint

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 November 2020

Verified Purchase

This is the latest in the Wild Norfolk series featuring DI Tom Janssen. This time the murder investigation threatens his relationship with his partner and he is ordered to distance himself from it and concentrate upon another, seemingly unrelated murder. Inevitably the two converge as common factors are revealed

This was a fast and enjoyable read with an interesting plot. The author's knowledge and love of Norfolk is apparent.. I spent 2 summers working in hotels in Great Yarmouth as a student and have some acquaintance wirh Norwich and Sheringham which gives the series a bit of added interest for me.

Recommended if you're looking for a police procedural series.

Another excellent read from this author, can't go into details as don't want to spoil it for others. Poor Insp Tom, he is always in trouble but he has a sharp mind and can get through his problems, near miss this time though. Thoroughly recommend this book, roll on the next one.
