β¦ Synopsis
Review
Praise for other Ruth Galloway Mysteries:
"Bone-chilling stuff..."
Times (U.K.)
"A heady brew of classical lore and psychopathic revelations ... the setting is enticingly atmospheric: very flat Norfolk may be, but it also has mysterious fogs and waterways that lead to a gripping chase, excellently interwoven with the Latin quotations and carbon-dating.... I closed the book...feeling the satisfaction that a really intelligent murder story can give."
The Independent
"In this gripping series the central characters... have the allure of old friends, and it's great to find that the third title is just as enthralling as it's predecessors...."
The Guardian
"Gripping. . . . [Ruth Galloway] is solitary and plump and smart and self-assured, and very, very likeable."
Margaret Cannon, Globe and Mail
About the Author
Elly Griffiths' Ruth Galloway novels take for their inspiration Elly's husband, who gave up a city job to train as an archaeologist, and her aunt who lives on the Norfolk coast and who filled her niece's head with the myths and legends of that area. Elly is the mother of twins and lives near Brighton. A Room Full of Bones is her fourth crime novel featuring Dr Ruth Galloway.
