Product Description

Review

'a beguiling author who interweaves past and present. Like its predecessor... the book works well on both levels' The Times 'detective fiction with a historical twist - fans...will love it.' Scotland on Sunday 'Liverpool born Kate Ellis (no relation) has written a series of fascinating detective novels set in Devon...featuring a quietly intelligent black policeman... They are intriguing books with mysteries that mirror event s from previous centuries 'Ron Ellis 'She writes well...recounted with pleasant wit and a genuine feeling' Birmingham Post 'Kate Ellis gets my personal vote as Most Promising New Crime Writer' Sherlock Holmes Magazine 'sense of the abiding presence of history that adds another dimension to an already intriguing tale' Northern Echo 'moody mystery...a splendid piece of whodunnit, and when?' Newcastle Evening Chronicle

Product Description

Eighteenth century Chadleigh Hall in Devon (until recently used as a girls' boarding school) is being converted by Dominic Kilburn, its new owner, into a luxury hotel. But when his builders start work on a previously bricked-up room they make a grisly discovery - the skeleton of what looks to be a young woman tied to a chair. To DI Wesley Peterson and his boss Gerry Heffernan it looks as if some poor unfortunate soul has been walled up and left to die. Meanwhile Wesley's archaeologist friend Neil is investigating the ruins of a ship called the Celestina, wrecked in a nearby cove in 17772. The new owner of Chadleigh Hall, Dominic Kilburn, has legal rights to the wreck and is impatient to get his hands on her reputed cargo of gold. But then a woman's body is found floating in the sea by divers and Wesley has not one but two unexplained deaths on his hands...
