Summary

The story opens in an unnamed place, in the far distant past where mammoths and sabre toothed tigers roam and humans have to hunt and forage for their food. The narrator is a twelve-year-old child, a sure, confident voice who tells of her family group's travel through this hostile land. And, then, the scene shifts and we find ourselves securely in the present day and we learn that our protagonist Skye is in sixth form and has survived cancer.

Set in Norfolk, this crime of betrayal takes us to an archaeological site on the beach where Skye's Geography class has come to observe an important new finding. Weaving together two distinct time-lines in the same location, this is a hugely ambitious work by a writer of unbridled imagination and talent.

Not sure why this was included

I have had to go for 2 stars for this review purely because this isn't a crime/thriller story.

The story was engaging enough and was delivered well by Katy Sobey but for those diving into this series based on the promise of a thrilling story they wont find it here.

pointless

After a vaguely intriguing opening the story meandered trivially and ended before anything of interest actually happened.

Ely Griffiths

I am avid reader. And listening of this author's
Novels with her tails of East Anglia, the sea and archeology.
This short story does not disappoint.
