About this listen
The crashing wave catches the early morning light, sparkling like diamonds across the beach. It cocoons the girl’s body resting on the rocks, her knees tucked under her. As the water reaches it, the girl’s dark hair rises in tendrils to caress her face, her eyelashes speckled with sand. She’d look like a mermaid from a story… if not for the bruises around her fragile throat.
When the body of a young woman is found by the coast in Land’s End, Cornwall, Detective Lauren Pengelly and her deputy Matt Price are first on the scene. Sophie Bethany Yates was well-known around the docks – a pretty girl from up the coast, always dreaming of something more. As locals jostle the barricades for a better look, whispers go round that Sophie’s boyfriend Samuel was more than capable of murder.
But Lauren isn’t ready to close the case, even after Samuel can’t give a reliable alibi for the night Sophie died. Something about the crime scene feels off – a hunch confirmed when they find a tiny slip of paper hidden inside Sophie’s mouth, reading “Men must work and women must weep”. It’s a break in the case, but a confusing one. What does the cryptic message mean, and how come Lauren feels like she’s heard it before?
But then another young woman is found on the sand, a curl of paper between her lips. Lauren knows they’re running out of time to catch the killer. As she begins to untangle the dark truth around what’s happening to these girls, she discovers a darker side to the scenic town – and to Sophie herself, who wasn’t all she seemed. Hiding in plain sight is a twisted killer, whose desperate plans mean nobody is safe for long… but can Lauren piece together the truth before they find her first?
An unputdownable murder mystery from a bestselling author, perfect for fans of LJ Ross, Louise Penny and Joy Ellis.

Enjoyable Listen!
If I had to pick Sally’s best work it would be the Sebastian Clifford series, however these books are enjoyable in the same way I enjoyed all of the Cavendish and Walker! One little niggle I have is that I sometimes wish Sally would do find and replace for “said”. Its overuse bothered me more than usual in this book! Looking forward to the progression of Matt and Lauren’s friendship as the series progresses!

Book 3. As good as Book 1. Very good indeed. I love this author.
Another great listen. It was worth the wait for this title to be released. The narrator was excellent once more and it’s one to keep and add to my collection. Will wait for Book 4 now.

Loving this new series ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I love Sally Rigby's Cavendish & Walker and Seb Clifford series, and this new, Cornish set series is just as brilliant as they are.
The plots are always interesting, and lots of great banter between the members of the detective team .
Excellent writing and narration by the very talented Clare Corbett, who has an amazing talent for different accents.

A Haunting and Engaging Cornwall Murder Mystery!
Sally Rigby continues to impress with Murder at Land's End, the third book in A Cornwall Murder Mystery series. This installment delivers another intriguing case, packed with suspense, well-developed characters, and the beautifully eerie Cornwall setting that adds so much depth to the storytelling.
The story is strong, though perhaps not quite as gripping as The Lost Girls of Penzance. While the twists and turns keep you engaged, there are a few slower moments. That said, the mystery itself is well-crafted, and the character dynamics keep you invested. Rigby does a great job of building tension and keeping readers (or listeners) guessing.
Once again, Clare Corbett’s narration is top-notch. Her ability to bring distinct voices to each character while maintaining the perfect tone for a murder mystery makes the audiobook incredibly immersive. You never lose track of who’s speaking, and the pacing of her delivery enhances the suspenseful moments beautifully.
If you’ve been following the series, this is another must-listen. It delivers everything you’d expect—an engaging plot, strong characters, and an atmospheric setting that keeps you hooked. A great addition to the Cornwall Murder Mystery collection!
Are you excited for the next book in the series?
