Elly Griffiths seems to have a good series on her hands. This mystery novel is set in Norfolk along the coast where her detective lives. Griffiths has just a limited number of characters in the story and one of them most likely is the child abductor and murderer. It becomes evident about 3/4 the way through who that might be, but, of course, not to the main characters - the archaeologist and the police detective. A good read combining police work with Iron Age myths and bones all the while the sounds of the sea and the danger of sink holes in mudflats lurk around the story. Probably a good beach read. I look forward to taking out the next book in this series.
