Critics Review
Griffiths weaves superstition and myth into her crime novels, skilfully treading a line between credulity and modern methods of detection - Sunday Times
A great series - GuardianGriffiths’ excellent series is well informed and original - Literary ReviewArchaeology and crime often walk hand in hand in crime fiction, and seem a natural fit as they have in common both bones and quests for the truth. I’ve never before, however, read a crime novel in which the two blend as successfully as in The Crossing Places … Elly Griffiths’ characterization is as good as her writing, and I can’t wait for the next in the series - ShotsmagAbout The Author
