About this listen
Ruth's grief soon turns to suspicion of arson when she receives a desperate letter from Dan, sent the day before he died. He had made a ground-breaking discovery - and was petrified of the consequences.
Ruth is compelled to travel north to investigate further, alongside DCI Harry Nelson who is also drawn into the case. But where Ruth goes, so does her young daughter, Kate. This time, the risks are even higher.

Listeners also enjoyed...
I enjoyed them all, but this one stands out for me because of the Arthurian theme. Did he exist, and if so who was he? I've read so many theories and the Northern British ones are fascinating. Yes, this is a novel, but so are the late Mary Stewart's Crystal Cave series and they are brilliant. (Wish Audible would record them, unabridged)
With this you get everything - a classic Ruth Galloway book, well written, with developments in the lives of all the regular characters. A murder mystery that keeps you guessing a lot of the time. Archaeology proving more interesting than I ever imagined. Plus King Arthur!
Yes, Ruth still dithers when she should act, never seems to learn from previous risky experiences and often you want to shake her in irritation but that's the person she is and the mark of how well Elly Griffiths has created her as an individual. Well read as always, and with a wonderfully intriguing twist...
No spoilers! Listen for yourself...
My favourite Ruth Galloway so far - with a twist!

Would you consider the audio edition of Dying Fall to be better than the print version?
I love audio books, so I'm already a convert.Who was your favorite character and why?
Ruth is great, trying to balance work, motherhood and police work. I like cathbad too, he adds a bit of mystery to the proceedings.Which character – as performed by Clare Corbett – was your favourite?
This was the first Elly Griffiths book I've read so I had to go back to number one in the series, it's worth doing as the characters grow with you.Another good Ruth Galloway mystery.

What made the experience of listening to Dying Fall the most enjoyable?
As in all her books I have read thus far, the author brings alive the interesting and eccentric personalities.What other book might you compare Dying Fall to, and why?
I don't think I would compare it to another book.What do you think the narrator could have done better?
I have found extremely annoying that the narrator changes in book 5 and many of the characters have completely different accents!Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
It made me laugh and cry - all the books in this series have. Can really relate and empathise with Ruth Galloway.Hooked on this series!
