The first entry in the acclaimed Ruth Galloway series follows the "captivating"* archaeologist as she investigates a child's bones found on a nearby beach, thought to be the remains of a little girl who went missing ten years before.
Forensic archeologist Dr. Ruth Galloway is in her late thirties. She lives happily alone with her two cats in a bleak, remote area near Norfolk, land that was sacred to its Iron Age inhabitantsโnot quite earth, not quite sea. But her routine days of digging up bones and other ancient objects are harshly upended when a childโs bones are found on a desolate beach. Det

Rating: 4.0 out of 5 stars
Title: Good mystery
Date: Reviewed in the United States ๐บ๐ธ on January 16, 2023
Review: It kept my attention and had an entertaining cast of characters. There were a few plot points that seemed a bit far-fetched, but I enjoyed it none the less. Itโs not a cozy mystery, but itโs not filled with graphic violence, either. Kind of a nice middle of the road mystery. Iโll continue with the series.

Review: I really liked and admired Ruth. She is intelligent, independent, and witty but also has some insecurities. The mystery was interesting and pulled me right in.
The ending was a little squirrelly to me, but maybe I just missed something. Still, not a dealbreaker. Iโm going right on to the next book in the series.

Review: Great characters and good even paced writing. Love the descriptions of the seaside and moors. Felt like I was there; even a bit chilled while reading. Reader will learn a thing or two about long-ago times. Ruth Galloway is a well-developed character with whom I could readily identify. Am now reading #2 in this series, which is equally as good! Highly recommend!

Review: Round the eastern coast of Norfolk, the North Sea creeps upon the land and leaves behind a desolate place known as the salt marsh; a landscape of oozing mud and deep pools hidden beneath rampant grass and reeds. Thousands of years ago, this hostile place may have held religious significance for primitive peoples. Upon it they built a wooden henge and set markers to navigate the quicksand beds.
Today, this lonely site is shunned by most, but Dr Ruth Galloway chooses to live here near where she first excavated the site of the ancient henge. Dr Galloway, archaeologist, anthropologist, and professor at Northern Norfolk University, views the salt marsh with a strange combination of fear and awe, love and loathing. Although the road to her cottage, one of only three houses on the marsh, is frequently flooded and impassible, she is determined to ignore these inconveniences and remain to discover the history of the long ago people who dwelt here.
Her anthropology expertise makes her the logical person to consult when the shifting bog gives up the body of a child. Could this child be Lucy Downey, taken from her home ten years ago with never a trace or clue to her fate? The missing child has haunted Detective Chief Inspector Harry Nelson these long years. After the child went missing, the kidnapper taunted him with letters giving cryptic clues to Lucy's final resting place. A brief examination by Dr Galloway results in the discovery of an Iron Age torc around the child's neck and she determines this is not Lucy but rather an amazingly well preserved corpse that dates to perhaps 600 BC.
Another crushing disappointment for DCI Nelson, but a career building discovery for Galloway. Still, the Inspector senses an ally in Ruth. Her ready knowledge of folklore and ancient myths may aid him in discovering clues in the letters written by the kidnapper (if they were indeed written by him and not some publicity seeker trying to gain attention from a high profile case). Thus, Ruth is drawn into the search for the long missing Lucy and her abductor.
Author Elly Griffiths creates a vivid picture of this desolate bog, a place of neither sea nor land that holds many secretes and must be coaxed into revealing them. The British have a knack for writing dark and brooding atmosphere. I have a feeling that we Americans would look upon this place as a mostly sunny wetland full of wonderful birds and colorful plants, but that would not add to the sinister tone of the story. Instead, Griffiths paints us a landscape, lonely and unfriendly, dark and wet and always willing to accept the sacrifices of man and hold them forever.
Ruth Galloway is an unusual main character. Neurotic, aging and overweight, struggling with a lot of anger and self worth issues, she isn't an especially likable heroine. We glimpse her thoughts and see mostly self absorption and repressed hostility. It was not Ruth's character, but rather the romance of ancient legends that pulled me deeply into the story. DCI Nelson is also a compelling character. He is both intense and focused and the reader can't help but sympathize with his frustration over his failure to resolve the Lucy Downey case.
Familiar as we are here in America with police procedurals (we are bombarded by shows such as CSI and Law and Order) we may also wonder why the Norfolk police didn't call in experts in the fields of mythology and religion to analyze the letters at the beginning of the abduction case rather than ten years later. All I can say is that most novels have these irritating flaws but if the author has already hooked her readers, minor problems can be overlooked.
For years I have been an avid reader of the novels of Beverly Connor and Kathy Reichs, both anthropologists. Elly Griffiths' first novel The Crossing Place is different, yet similar. Slower paced, and featuring not the self assured professional women created by the first two authors, but rather a competent academic who is more comfortable with cats than police inspectors and who, every morning must deal with her own self image before she can face the challenges of the day. The book needed a lot more archeaology and a lot less angst.
This book lost points with me for the following reasons:
* Slow pace, too much introspection and angst.
* Animal cruelty. I know it's just a book, but the cruelty was senseless.
* The ending was just too well tied up in a bow. All the puzzle pieces fell in place much too quickly and too perfectly.
* I knew who the evil doer was from the beginning (but there were a few surprises in the red herrings Griffiths threw at us).
