Boxed In (DS Webber Mystery (Annie Raymond Mysteries Book 5) 7) Kindle Edition

5.0 5.0 out of 5 stars 3 ratings

It’s years since Private Investigator Annie Raymond set eyes on PC Jennifer Flanagan, yet here they are face to face because a rogue shipping container turned up in a recycling yard on the outskirts of Hull, and a man died. The grieving widow hurls accusations but too quickly backs off.

Why is the container undocumented? How did it arrive unnoticed amid the forest of cameras and automated recognition systems?

When Annie’s paymasters start taking too close an interest in her present, and Jennifer’s supervisors begin digging into her past, the two women are drawn into an uneasy alliance. Do they feel under surveillance because they’re watching each other, or is it something more sinister?

While Annie tries to protect her agency, in the myriad dockyards sprawled alongside the dark waters of the Humber, robotic systems swing gigantic steel containers with millimetre precision through the cold winter air.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Another Cracking Crime Story
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 29, 2021
    This is the latest in the Annie Raymond series, and, as usual, worth waiting for. As someone who doesn’t read much crime fiction, I’ve always enjoyed this series of crime novels, which is probably explained by the excellent writing and the way Penny Grubb delivers her characters.
    In this story, Annie’s always enquiring mind and need to know what really happened, takes her on a strange journey into an unfamiliar world. The descriptions of the container park, with its vast array of massive metal boxes full of who knows what, engage the reader’s attention. We are there with her as the massive machinery follows its automated processes completely unconcerned for the humanity that designed and supposedly controls it. In the first visit, the air of threat and menace is tangible. In the final one, the threat becomes all too real, as Annie faces almost unsurmountable odds and dangers in her quest to discover the truth.
    As always, the characters are wonderfully real people; varied, interesting, unreliable and oh so human. We feel the frustrations, irritations, uncertainties, and, as the denouement builds, the tensions, fears, and dreads.
    This story grabbed me from the very start and held me tight in an unrelenting grip until the last word.
    A real page turner, but one where the action is driven by the varied and fascinating characters. A great read!

    5.0 out of 5 stars A cracking novel seeded with cryptic clues
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 23, 2021
    The author’s Crime novels are always a good read, but 'Boxed In' exudes the atmosphere of a cryptic crossword puzzle made real. All the clues are there, but do they mean? What does a swathe of printouts actually show? Over all hang huge shipping containers, moving through space like bulky ballerinas to a computer’s symphony. Except computers need to be programmed by humans, and humans shouldn’t be trusted.

    Annie Raymond may be finally in charge of the PI agency, but The Sisters aren’t making it easy, and neither are the police. The main characters of the series are not static but change with the books, and the subsidiaries and suspects have their own agendas and failings. It all makes for a complex, multi-dimensional story to keep a reader gripped. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Be warned: you’ll never look at a shipping container the same again.
