Elly Griffiths has written another Ruth Galloway mystery, A Dying Fall, published 2013. Ruth Galloway loses one of her friends from college, a Dan Golding, by a fire in his home. After she hears the devastating news, she receives an letter from him, saying that he is scared. He has uncovered the archaeology discovery of his lifetime, and wants Ruth's help in the identification. She gets an invitation from the head of the department to help with the discovery, as she is a forensic archaeologist. She decides to take her daughter with her and make a vacation of it. She also invites Kate's godfather, Cathbad, to go along and help with her eighteen month old. This a a good read as I always enjoy the adventures of Ruth Galloway. Elly Griffiths is the 2011 winner of the Mary Higgins Clark Award and longlisted for the CWA Dagger in the Library award 2012. I like to see the advancement of the series as I started with the first, The Crossing Places, shortlisted for the Theakstons Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year. The House at Sea's End was shortlisted for the Barry Award for best British Crime Novel (US). I can't wait for the next one in the series. Elley Griffiths lives in Britian.
