You never know what you might uncover ... This chilling procedural is perfect for fans of Ian Rankin and Peter James. While digging the foundation for the conversion of an old farmyard into upscale stables, builders unearth a human hand preserved in clay. Suddenly suspicious, the police explore further and find not one body, but two. To crack a case that's even colder than the ground, detectives Cooper and Fry must look into the past of the eerily named Pity Wood Farm. But there is no obvious reason why the previous owners, two elderly brothers, would have corpses buried on their land. With little to go on but a collection of old bones, Cooper and Fry search desperately for a clue as to who--or what--brings death to Pity Wood Farm.… (meer)
This series uses the intriguing setting, weather and people of the Peak District to set the mood and heighten suspense and confusion. Such an interesting series. ( )
Stephen Booth immerses the reader in his descriptions of the Peak District. The characters have their quirks and aren't always totally likeable. This story was steeped in superstition and also modern day crimes. ( )
Another excellent mystery. A body is dug out "by mistake" and soon we have one more. Fry and Cooper are soon involved in interviewing possible suspects, the old owner of the farm, now sold, and get to discover dark secrets and a crime ring where no one would have expected it. I loved every bit of this book, all the way to the grand finale with gunshots and danger for our heros. Fry goes to Dublin and mellows a bit, Cooper is following his instincts and scoring points, and Murfin is suspected of having taken all the chocolate bars from the lunch boxes. Now, where's the next in the series? ( )
An improvement on the last two books. Ben and Diane's relationship seems more human and more rounded. An intriguing plot, with some cunning twists near the end. Atmospheric writing about the landscape, as usual. ( )
