The Outcast Dead

Author: Elly Griffiths

Ruth Galloway’s latest archaeological dig unearths a grim discovery: the bones of a Victorian murderess. As Ruth delves deeper, she finds herself entangled in a modern mystery that echoes the past. With her keen eye for detail and knack for uncovering secrets, Ruth races against time to solve both cases. Griffiths weaves a captivating tale of history, murder, and the thin line between justice and revenge. I couldn’t put it down, staying up way too late to finish just one more chapter!

Sometimes the dead are more alive than the living.
