'GALLOWAY NOW SEEMS AS REAL AS MARPLE AND MORSE' The Times
'SET IN DIVINE NORTH NORFOLK. INTENSELY ATMOSPHERIC AND GREAT' India Knight
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.

Kritikerstimmen
Lockdown provides a brilliant opportunity for Griffiths, bringing fresh drama into her characters' lives and she makes the most of it
Where other Covid-themed mysteries have felt uninspired, this entry in Elly Griffiths' brilliant Ruth Galloway series is an intelligent and gripping recreation of those first weeks of lockdown in 2020
A terrific story that allows Galloway and Nelson to get closer than they have been for years
Griffiths' Ruth Galloway series combines imaginative plotting, cleverly located in deepest Norfolk, with the everyday dramas of her cast of regular characters . . . This is Griffiths on top form
A classic English mystery from one of the leading authors in the field, charming from start to finish
Fans of gripping, clever thrillers will love this book
Brilliantly plotted with complex mysteries to keep you turning the pages, there is also an intriguing cliff-hanger
A mystery treat
A sheer reading pleasure
Brilliant, as ever
least favourite story of the Serie

Covid was, beside the medical aspect, very much about how people treat one another since we all had our very own view and most of us found it hard to tolerate opinions that were very different from ours. So having to go through the beginning of the whole thing again and having to do it through the eyes of someone else was extremely challenging for me.
The story itself was mainly very good, though, so was the narrator, she always is.
Hoping for#15 to be less ... hm... subjective? personal? But, then, isn't all literature personal...
too much drama
