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.
