'SET IN DIVINE NORTH NORFOLK. INTENSELY ATMOSPHERIC AND GREAT'
India Knight Dr Ruth Galloway returns to the moody and beautiful
landscape of North Norfolk to confront another killer. A
devastating new case for our favourite forensic archaeologist in
this acclaimed and bestselling crime series. The Night Hawks, a
group of metal detectorists, are searching for buried treasure when
they find a body on the beach in North Norfolk. At first Nelson
thinks that the dead man might be an asylum seeker but he turns out
to be a local boy, Jem Taylor, recently released from prison. Ruth
is more interested in the treasure, a hoard of Bronze Age weapons.
Nelson at first thinks that Taylor's death is accidental drowning,
but a second death suggests murder. Nelson is called to an apparent
murder-suicide of a couple at the isolated Black Dog Farm. Local
legend talks of the Black Shuck, a spectral hound that appears to
people before they die. Nelson ignores this, even when the owner's
suicide note includes the line, 'He's buried in the garden.' Ruth
excavates and finds the body of a giant dog. All roads lead back to
this farm in the middle of nowhere, but the place spells serious
danger for anyone who goes near. Ruth doesn't scare easily. Not
until she finds herself at Black Dog Farm ...
