About this ebook
Digging into the past unearths a modern murder in the second crime thriller featuring Inspector Elisenda Domènech from the author of City ofGood Death.
Still recovering from tragedy, Inspector Elisenda Domènech takes on a new case involving a body discovered on an archaeological dig. Seemingly executed as part of an ancient tribal ritual, it soon becomes clear that this body is no antiquity but the victim of a brutal murder from the 1980s.
Uncovering the complex world of jealous archaeologists, vicious rivalries and missing persons, Elisenda battles the dark trade in illicit relics while never far from enemies of her own within the police force.
But the murderer has unfinished work . . .
The atmospheric second crime thriller featuring Catalan detective Elisenda Domènech, for readers of Val McDermid and Ann Cleeves.
“Chris Lloyd has a way of telling a great complex story at a beautiful pace, which really sparks your imagination.” —Northern Crime Blog
