2000s: An archaeological dig reveals more than anyone expected
City of Buried Ghosts (Inspector Domènech 2)
What you need to know before your trail
Still recovering from the tragedy that hit her team, Elisenda takes on a new case. Except it’s not new. On an archaeological dig by the coast a body is uncovered, seemingly executed with a spike thrust through the front of the skull – an ancient tribal ritual. It soon becomes clear that this body is neither ancient nor modern, but a mysterious corpse from the 1980s.
Elisenda soon uncovers a complex world of star archaeologists, jealousy and missing persons. This is a case which involves the dark trade in illicit antiquities and professional rivalries.
Another horrific murder blows the case wide open…
