**THE NUMBER ONE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER** Forensic archaeologist
Dr Ruth Galloway and DCI Harry Nelson are on the hunt for a
murderer when Covid rears its ugly head. But can they find the
killer despite lockdown? 'GALLOWAY NOW SEEMS AS REAL AS MARPLE AND
MORSE' The Times 'INTENSELY ATMOSPHERIC AND GREAT' India Knight
Forensic archaeologist Dr Ruth is in London clearing out her
mother's belongings when she makes a surprising discovery: a
photograph of her Norfolk cottage taken before Ruth lived there.
Her mother always hated the cottage, so why does she have a picture
of the place? The only clue is written on the back of the photo:
Dawn, 1963. Ruth returns to Norfolk determined to solve the
mystery, but then Covid rears its ugly head. Ruth and her daughter
are locked down in their cottage, attempting to continue with work
and home-schooling. Happily, the house next door is rented by a
nice woman called Zoe, who they become friendly with while standing
on their doorsteps clapping for carers. Nelson, meanwhile, is
investigating a series of deaths of women that may or may not be
suicide. When he links the deaths to an archaeological discovery,
he breaks curfew to visit the cottage where he finds Ruth chatting
to her neighbour whom he remembers as a carer who was once tried
for murdering her employer. Only then her name wasn't Zoe. It was
Dawn. ******************************** PRAISE FOR THE LOCKED ROOM
