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 has two children and lives near Brighton. Though not her first novel, The Crossing Places is her first crime novel.

A Great Read

Thr Ruth Galloway series needs to be read in order to get the most from the character development through the various cases.
I thoroughly enjoyed this edition of the first six & will be moving on to further stories of Ruth, Nelson, Cathbad, Judy, Clough & of course Hethcate

[Elizabeth Ann Weyman]

Page turner's. The characters are superb and their lives are interesting. The history is great. These are written so atmospherically you can hear the waves, feel the mist they really are a great read. Don't hesitate you won't regret buying a bundle of Ruth Galloway mysteries.

[Alasdair Henderson]

Some great tales

I imagine it is hard to keep a five star standard for 6 books. This is a good attempt.

All the books have a few twists. The last one let's it down, a little. Earlier ones are outstanding.

[Sue Burlton]

Page turning and comfortable. Developing story lines and characters that come to life.
