THE OUTCAST DEAD - ELLY GRIFFITHS TASCHENBUCH

Historical crimes involving a Victorian child killer may hold the key to several contemporary
deaths in this macabre outing for Dr Ruth Galloway  forensic archaeologist. Perfect for fans of
Val McDermid and Ann Cleeves. 'Told with a deepening sense of the unease  seasoned with a touch
of the occult' Daily Mail Ruth has excavated a body from the grounds of Norwich Castle  which
was once a prison. The body may be that of Victorian murderess Jemima Green. Called Mother Hook
for her claw-like hand  Jemima was hanged for the murder of five children. DCI Harry Nelson has
no time for long-ago killers. Investigating the case of three infants found dead  one after the
other  in their King's Lynn home  he's convinced that their mother is responsible. Then a child
goes missing. Could the abduction be linked to the long-dead Mother Hook? Ruth is pulled into
the case  and back towards Nelson.
