This was such a gorgeous read, sitting here with the rain lashing down outside and several cups of coffee, I really got sucked into the atmosphere. I don't know the Fens at all, but you describe them beautifully, plus the dotty villagers and the wonderful dialects. And your Doyle and Bodie are so utterly the way I want them to be - Bodie laid back and besotted with Doyle, Doyle all snarky and quick tempered and sex on a stick... the dialogue and humour are fab - especially "That's Royal Mail innit?" Doyle muttered at the end. Love it!
