The discovery of a missing woman's bones force Ruth and Nelson to finally confront their feelings for each other as they desperately work to exonerate one of their own in this not-to-be-missed last act of the beloved Ruth Galloway series from USA Today bestselling author Elly Griffiths.When builders discover a human skeleton in the wall during a renovation of a caf, they immediately call in DCI Harry Nelson and Dr. Ruth Galloway. The bones turn out to be modern--the remains of Katherine Sands, who went missing in the 90s. Right before she disappeared, Katherine attended a spiritual wellness course led by none other than Ruth's dear friend Cathbad.The police start asking questions and discover that there are other missing women connected to the wellness group. Suspicion soon falls on Cathbad, but believing the druid is innocent, Nelson follows a trail to the famous Neolithic flint mines in Grimes Graves and to an archaeology club. Ruth agrees to infiltrate their ranks to try to save her friend and while there she meets a pivotal figure from her own past. When he realizes that Ruth is in danger, Nelson is finally forced to face his feelings for her. What can the future hold for them after all this time?

The Ruth Galloway series are my favorite mysteries—so much so that I order them from the UK because I can‘t wait the additional months for the US publication. This is the last of the series and I‘m sad it‘s done. I don‘t know how I wanted it to end, but I liked what happened. The mystery was good but of course the personal relationships were what kept me reading.

Aims42 I also have some UK authors that I buy books from Waterstones because I cannot wait for the US pub dates 😄 Glad I‘m not alone!!! 1y
MallenNC @Aims42 You are not alone! Prettier covers are also a reason to order from the UK! 1y

#FabulousFebruary readathon. Four days done and slowly making progress. Started the latest and possibly last Dr Galloway, Ella Griffiths book. It's good and I loved exploring Grimes Graves when I was young.

Elly Griffith‘s Ruth Galloway series has become one of my “comfort” reads - books to pick up when the world becomes too much & I just want to escape into a fictional world. I was disappointed when I heard that this would be the last Galloway book but I must say Griffiths has done a masterful job of tying up lots of loose ends & esp. in the way she brings the series full-circle with the re-introduction of a particular character. Out in April 2023
