The dark angel
(Book - Regular Print)

"In this highly atmospheric mystery, Ruth Galloway--described by Louise Penny as "a captivating amateur sleuth"--and DI Nelson have their summer vacations horribly disrupted by a murder in a medieval Italian town where dark secrets are buried as deep as bones"--,Provided by publisher.

When archaeologist Angelo Morelli asks for Ruth Galloway's help identifying bones found in the tiny hilltop town of Fontana Liri, she jumps at the chance to go, bringing her daughter along with her for a working vacation. Fontana Liri had a strong resistance movement during World War II, and there are many deeply buried secrets. DCI Nelson appears at the dig, and when Ruth's findings lead to a modern-day murder, their holidays are both turned upside down. -- adapted from jacket.
