First in a series. Wes Petersen is newly assigned as a detective sergeant to Tradmouth, a small city on the coast of Devon. When he arrives he finds that a friend of his is heading up a dig nearby. Wes has a degree in archaeology, so wants to spend free time with his buddy Neil and hear about what they are discovering. In the meantime, a woman is found murdered and he’s drawn immediately into a complex and baffling case. Do they even know who the murdered woman is?
I found the mystery a bit too easy, but I liked the characters and the setting was well drawn. I love the parallel to what is being discovered at the dig with what is happening in current day. It seems little changes over time. Little that matters, anyway.
