Helen's Reviews > The Night Hawks

Splendid further instalment in this series with a rather tantalising ending. There's a high body count and some occasionally unbelievable plot twists, but the characters are strong enough to carry the story and make you believe in them. Ruth is back in Norfolk, having left her prestigious Cambridge post and rejected Frank's proposal. Archaeology, the Norfolk seascape, a more recent historical story, and a modern murder/suicide - or is it? Also, lots of creepy East Anglian folklore. Funny and compassionate, and doesn't dodge the complications of relationships.
