Über diesen Titel

 '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 ...

Even though some books weren't exactly my cup of tea, the whole series is simply amazing. This volume is another incredible book, exciting, spiritual, interesting, well phrased, well read... but seriously... you can't leave us in limbofor a full year after the closing scene of this book... that cruelty to listeners/readers!

loving it

I think I enjoyed this one the most out of all the other books of this series I have listened to up until now. Very enjoyable

The best in a good series

I could listen to Jane McDowell’s reading forever. Unfortunately this for now is the latest novel about Ruth Galloway and DCI Nelson and I’ve gigten quite fond of them. I hope a sequel will soon come!!

About the story, which of course involves both Ruth and Nelson I can’t really tell so much without giving spoilers. So I give it 5 stars and hope you will read it or listen to it - in this case even better, but make sure you get Jane McDowell as a speaker.
I will impatiently wait for the next one.

Read it!

Wenn die Akzente und schlecht gesprochenen Dialekte (alles was nicht erwachsen oder englischsprechend) nicht gewesen wären - es wäre 1a gewesen.
Tolle, überraschende Story, Wendungen und Ende.

Gut zu hören.

Akzente....
