The House at Sea's End

Author: Elly Griffiths

Nestled on the windswept Norfolk coast, a crumbling cliff reveals a grim secret: six bodies, buried for decades. Dr. Ruth Galloway, forensic archaeologist, is called in to investigate. As she unearths clues from the past, Ruth finds herself entangled in a web of wartime mysteries and present-day dangers. With her keen intellect and dry wit, Ruth must navigate treacherous waters, both literal and figurative, to solve a case that hits uncomfortably close to home. Griffiths’ atmospheric prose brings the coastal setting to life, making you feel the salt spray on your face and hear the haunting cries of seabirds.

Sometimes the past is closer than we think.
