The Midnight Hour by Elly Griffiths

The Midnight Hour by Elly Griffiths

A twisty new murder story from the bestselling author of the Dr Ruth Galloway Mysteries

Beneath the smooth, swan-like progression of Elly Griffith's sentences there is a lot going onShe is utterly in control of her material, and the machinations of the plot are never allowed to swamp character development, sense of place or the creation of atmosphere. She is a witty writer: the sturdy legs of a toddler on a swing, for example, are said to be "kicking the sky." If only all history mysteries could be as good as The Midnight Hour.
