Everything has changed for Dr Ruth Galloway.
She has a new job, home and partner and is no longer North Norfolk police's resident forensic archaeologist. That is, until convicted murderer Amyas March offers to make DCI Nelson a deal. Nelson was always sure that March killed more women than he was charged with. Now March confirms this and offers to show Nelson where the other bodies are buried - but only if Ruth will do the digging.
Curious, but wary, Ruth agrees. March tells Ruth that he killed four more women and that their bodies are buried near a village bordering the fens, said to be haunted by the Lantern Men, mysterious figures holding lights that lure travellers to their deaths.
Is Amyas March himself a lantern man, luring Ruth back to Norfolk? What is his plan, and why is she so crucial to it? And are the killings really over?

DCI Nelson has been receiving threatening letters telling him to 'go to the stone circle and rescue the innocent who is buried there'. He is shaken, not only because children are very much on his mind, with Michelle's baby due to be born, but because although the letters are anonymous, they are somehow familiar. They read like the letters that first drew him into the case of The Crossing Places, and to Ruth. But the author of those letters is dead....

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.

Geschichte
Christmas 1953. Max Mephisto, and his daughter, Ruby, are headlining Brighton Hippodrome, an achievement only slightly marred by the less-than-savoury support act: a tableau show of naked 'living statues'. This might appear to have nothing in common with DI Edgar Stephens's investigation into the death of a quiet flower seller, but if there's one thing the old comrades have learned it's that, in Brighton, the line between art and life - and death - is all too easily blurred.

Can't wait for the next book!
Been a fan of this series for years now.
After the last volume which, in my opinion, was useless, I dreaded this book.
Would it be as bad as volume 11?
Well, NO!!!
Elly Griffiths is back on track, the story is fantastic, the narrator is fabulous Jane McDowell again, not that awful Claire Corbett.
Pleeaase, pretty pleease hurry upand present us with the next book 🌸

Audio problems
There are frequent phone calls in the audio stream, and those are of bad quality. Much lower volume than the normal speaker voice, and hard to understand.
I think it is a bad idea to present phone calls in a limited quality squeaky phone voice.

Verwirrend
Ein leicht verwirrender Fall, 1001 Personen und in den letzten 2 h viel Action.
Die Musik und die Tonveränderungen bei Telefonaten (viel leiserer Ton) nerven immer mehr, die Sprecherin hat die Kinderstimmen (besonders Kates) nicht glaubwürdig im Griff. Ansonsten wars wie gewohnt grosses Hörvergügen.
