5/12/2023 0 Comments The heron's cry reviewWhen Dr Yeo is later found with a glass shard sticking out of his neck, a murder enquiry begins. She is collared by Dr Nigel Yeo who it seems wants to tell her something important – but at the last minute he changes his mind. The story opens at a house party where DS Jen Rafferty (a member of Matthew's local investigative team) is more than a little tipsy. This time police HQ is in Barnstaple where the two rivers, Torridge and Taw, meet and where Matthew Venn and his husband, Jonathan Church, live in a remote cottage on the sand dunes overlooking the estuary and Bideford Bay. In it she evokes a strong sense of place reflecting her knowledge and love of the local wildlife, as in her two previous series - Vera and Shetland. This is the second of Ann Cleeves’ Two Rivers series featuring DI Matthew Venn, set in North Devon.
