A Room Full of Bones: The Dr Ruth Galloway Mysteries 4

WINNER OF THE 2016 CWA DAGGER IN THE LIBRARY. Halloween night, and the dead are closer than ever for Dr Ruth Galloway. She is used to long\-dead bodies, but a fresh corpse in the middle of a museum is a new challenge. The fourth beguiling Dr Ruth Galloway mystery.<\/b>

\x27A wonderfully rich mix of ancient and contemporary\x27 Guardian<\/i><\/b>

It is Halloween in King\x27s Lynn, and forensic archaeologist Dr Ruth Galloway is attending a strange event at the local history museum \- the opening of a coffin containing the bones of a medieval bishop. But then Ruth finds the body of the museum\x27s curator lying beside the coffin.

Soon the museum\x27s wealthy owner lies dead in his stables too. These two deaths could be from natural causes but DCI Harry Nelson isn\x27t convinced, and it is only a matter of time before Ruth and Nelson cross paths once more.

When threatening letters come to light, events take an even more sinister turn. But as Ruth\x27s friends become involved, where will her loyalties lie? As her convictions are tested, she and Nelson must discover how Aboriginal skulls, drug smuggling and the Aboriginal ritual of The Dreaming may hold the answer to these deaths \- and be the key to their own survival.<\/p>
