This was well-plotted with likeable characters and a strong Devon setting. The extracts dating from 997AD were directly relevant to the current day investigation and slotted in well. The archaeology was far better integrated than in the recent Elly Griffiths series. ( ) The Funeral Boat by Kate Ellis is the fourth book in her Wesley Peterson Murder Mysteries. Set in the fictional town of Tradmouth in Devon, DI Wesley Peterson and the rest of the crime solving team are investigating the disappearance of an attractive Danish tourist as well as a series of armed robberies. Wesley is an amateur archaeologist and is fairly certain that when a body is found buried in a farmers’ field that, even though apparently the victim of a crime, it is that of an ancient Viking. The author interweaves both this mystery from the past with the contemporary crimes and delivers an entertaining and interesting story. The Funeral Boat is another good addition to this series that falls somewhere between a cozy mystery and a police procedural. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Wesley Peterson (4)
When a skeleton is discovered on a Devon smallholding, DS Wesley Pterson, a keen amateur archeologist, is intrigued by the possibility that it is a Viking corpse, buried in keeping with ancient traditions. But he has a rather more urgent crime to solve- the disappearance of a Danish tourist. Wesley finds disturbing evidence that the attractive Dane has been abducted. His boss Gerry Heffernan believes that Ingeborg's disappearance is linked to a spate of brutal robberies and that she witnessed something she shouldn't have. But is her disappearance linked to far older events? For it seems that this may not have been Ingeborg's first visit to this far from quiet West Country backwater... Kate Ellis's wonderfully addictive series of West Country set crime novels feature Wesley Peterson, one of Devon's first black detectives. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
