A Mischief of Rats

Nell Ward, Book 3

By: Sarah Yarwood-Lovett

Narrated by: Kristin Atherton

When a driver dies during a glamourous classic car event at her family's estate, Dr Nell Ward is in a race against time to uncover the truth and prevent the killer from making a speedy getaway...

Back in her natural habitat, Dr Nell Ward heads to a woodland pond to survey local newt populations. She's shocked to discover a car submerged in the water - with the driver dead behind the wheel.

Nell recognises the dead man as professional racing driver, and tabloid love rat, Jack Rafferty, whose performance on (and off) Finchmere's racetrack had earned him enemies.

Suspecting this isn't the tragic accident it appears DI James Clark calls upon Nell and her ecological skills to help find the murderer. But she soon finds that more lurks under the surface than she could ever have imagined. Despite the danger, Nell is determined to dredge up the truth from the murky depths of this case, before it's too late...©2023 Sarah Yarwood-Lovett (P)2023 Bonnier Books UK

I enjoyed listening to the first three and looking forward to hearing more. I listen on my way to work every day.

Well crafted cosy mystery

Full of multiple suspects, this cosy mystery offers the thrill of the chase to find out who’s guilty and who’s situational carnage. Throughly enjoyable.

Best of the series so far

Most interesting of the series so far. I get tired of the love interests in the earlier books. This was better balanced.
