Sinopsis
Peaceful and isolated, and for part of each day cut off from the Northumbrian mainland by the tides, Lindisfarne seems untouched by the 20th century. But when the body of barmaid Ginny Adams, raped and battered, is discovered in a shallow grave, it is clear that evil has come to Holy Island.

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. Cover: Colin Sullivan Ilustrador. First. Binding burgundy cloth with gilt lettering on spine. Dj now protected inside a cover. The island of Lindisfarne, off the remote and windswept Northumbrian coast, isn't the sort of place where you'd expect murders to happen. But when the body of barmaid Ginny Adams is discovered in a shallow grave on the beach, it is clear that evil has come to one of the last truly holy places. It is a young archaeologist, Anna Fitzgerald, who stumbles upon Ginny's body. She is used to dealing with dead bones - she is currently working on the mainland excavating an ancient chapel - yet she can't stop thinking about what sort of person would put an end to a young, innocent life. And, intrigued despite her better instincts by her friend the rector's talk of Satan, she becomes more and more involved in the murder investigation. Spring Tide is a particularly gripping mystery of enormous atmosphere and power. Book. Nº de ref. del artículo: 004298
