Arnold finds himself on dangerous ground in shady Wolfcleugh Woods.
This boggy land has swallowed many a victim. Including the Wolf Man. Archaeologists pull his body from the ground — perfectly preserved, centuries after death.
What other secrets lie buried here?
Archaeologists are keen to find out, but they might never get the chance. Plans are afoot for a new bypass. One that would decimate the ancient woods.
Arnold is called in to keep the peace between developers, eco-warriors and historians.
Then comes the grisly find that changes everything. In a lonely glade, Arnold stumbles on a young woman’s body.
There’s nothing natural about her cause of death. She’s been bludgeoned from behind.
Somewhere among the trees, a ruthless killer lies in wait.
Can Arnold catch up to them before they strike again?
Fans of Elly Griffiths, Peter James, P.D. James, Joy Ellis, Damien Boyd, Helen H. Durrant, J.D. Kirk, Bill Kitson and Peter Robinson will devour this intriguing mystery.

THE DETECTIVE
Planning Officer Arnold Landon is inhibited and painfully aware of his lack of academic credentials. He lives in the North East of England and as self-taught archaeologist he confounds academic experts with his detailed knowledge, which involves him in a local murder. His expertise brings him promotion to the Archaeology Department where he meets frustration, which he nevertheless overcomes by making important discoveries of ancient artefacts while playing a leading role in solving local crimes. A succession of opportunities for further promotion pass him by because of his desire to remain in touch with the detailed history of sites in Northumberland and this leads to more conflict, first with his inadequate superior and then with the stunningly beautiful Karen Stannard and, later in his career, the Italian archaeologist Carmela Cacciatore.
