'Chilling' - Scotsman 'This is a series that just gets stronger with each new book' - Publishers Weekly


Product Description

When the body of Pauline Brent is found hanging from a yew tree in a local graveyard, DS Wesley Peterson immediately suspects foul play. Then history provides him with a clue. Wesley's archaeologist friend, Neil Watson, has excavated a corpse at his nearby dig - a young woman who, local legend has it, had been publicly hanged from the very same tree before being buried on unhallowed ground five centuries ago. Wesley is forced to consider the possibility that the killer knows the tree's dark history. Has Pauline also been 'executed' rather than murdered - and, if so, for what crime? To catch a dangerous killer Wesley has to discover as much as he can about the victim. But Pauline appears to have been a woman with few friends, no relatives and a past she has carefully tried to hide...

By A Customer
Kate has done it again and kept us rivated to the last page. This has to be the best so far with the stories growing in strength with each new book. Very entertaining.

4.0 out of 5 stars A hanging offence, 13 Jan 2009
This did not hang together so well for me as Ellis's first novel. The extracts from manuscripts which she uses so originally to introduce each chapter didn't tie in so convincingly or tightly enough with the modern plot. Nevertheless it's a superior read - I'm just glad I had read one of her previous novels or I might have been tempted to bypass her in future. However I already have the next - The Funeral Boat - at hand so I shall stay with her. Her prose is very eloquent, seamless and carries enough detail. Her books are a fine example of the genre and contain good quantities of social comment. Wesley is a wonderful product of our time - super guy, though his wife seems a bit of a miserable mother. Amazing that Michael is such a contented baby. This book didn't hold my attention like the first.
