The Resource Griffiths, Elly

Description: Archaeology plays a crucial role in unearthing long-buried secrets and hidden crimes in Elly Griffiths' atmospheric and suspenseful Mysteries, which unfold in present-day rural England. Despite the author's detailed, poetic depictions of landscapes, physical clues play a less important role in solving cases than do the (often tangled) relationships between characters. Spare but evocative prose and the incorporation of history and folklore lend Griffiths' work a haunting, moody quality, while her sympathetic, somewhat prickly protagonists reinforce larger themes of isolation, both physical and emotional. Start with: The Crossing Places
