Island Of Bones (Crowther And Westerman Book 3)

Product Description

Cumbria, 1783. A broken heritage; a secret history... The tomb of the first Earl of Greta should have lain undisturbed on its island of bones for three hundred years. When idle curiosity opens the stone lid, however, inside is one body too many. Gabriel Crowther's family bought the Gretas' land long ago, & has suffered its own bloody history. His brother was hanged for murdering their father, the Baron of Keswick, & Crowther has chosen comfortable seclusion & anonymity over estate & title for thirty years. But the call of the mystery brings him home at last. Travelling with forthright Mrs Harriet Westerman, who is escaping her own tragedy, Crowther finds a little town caught between new horrors & old, where ancient ways challenge modern justice. & against the wild & beautiful backdrop of fells & water, Crowther discovers that his past will not stay buried.
