Unearth the past and face the shadows... When a body is discovered at an archaeological dig site in Catalonia, Detective Elisenda Domènech is pulled into a chilling case. The victim, killed in the fashion of an ancient tribal ritual, dates not from ancient times, but from the 1980s. As Elisenda investigates a tangle of missing persons, academic rivalries, celebrity archaeologists and illegal antiquities, another brutal murder rocks the case. With danger closing in on all sides, she must face long-buried secrets and her personal demons. An utterly gripping second instalment of the "Catalan Crime Thrillers" set against the backdrop of one of Europe's most beautiful cities. Perfect for fans of Elly Griffiths and Ragnar Jónasson.
