She does so by inducing a series of serial killings so contrived that you have to wonder why she even tried. When torrential summer rains uncover a bizarrely tattooed body on a Lake District hillside, old wives’ tales also come swirling to the surface. After summer rains uncover a corpse bearing tattoos like those of eighteenth-century seafarers, many residents of the English Lake District can’t help but wonder whether it’s the body of one of the town’s most legendary fugitives. Jack Liffey, the Los Angeles private eye in John Shannon’s broad-shouldered novels, is one of those stalwart souls.

com, the Sell on Etsy app, and the Etsy app, as well as the electricity that powers Etsy’s global offices and employees working remotely from home in the US. When a bizarrely tattooed body is found in the Lake District, all the clues a local scholar can find lead back to the poet and an alleged testament left by the historical mutineer. The Grave Tattoo probably explains why I prefer McDermid's standalones to the series: there is no formula to follow. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.Suddenly Jane is at the heart of a 200-year-old mystery that still has the power to put lives on the line. The less said about the incredibly disparate but most action packed runaway girl segments, the better. This body in the bog is of great interest to Jane Gresham, a scholar of the local Lakeland poet, William Wordsworth. It is difficult to find words to capture the masterful achievement that is Val McDermid’s THE GRAVE TATTOO. I also enjoyed the relationship between Jane and her neighbour, a vulnerable 13-year-old, who gets thrown into the midst of murder and a police hunt.

These 4 or 5-star reviews represent the opinions of the individuals who posted them and do not reflect the views of Etsy. Wordsworth specialist Jane Gresham, herself a native of the Lake District, feels compelled to discover once and for all whether the manuscript ever existed - and whether it still exists today.Jane (like Christian, a native of Fellhead) hopes to prove the local legend that he escaped from Pitcairn Island and made his way back to England, also validating her own theory that he confided the true story of his ill-fated adventures to his onetime schoolmate, William Wordsworth.

Jane is a dedicated Wordsworth scholar who grew up in England's lovely Lake District where the poet also lived. Even if you stretch the bounds of credibility for artistic licence, he's arresting people on evidence so paper thin you could make a kite out of it. The plot is built on artifacts related to William Wordsworth and his childhood acquaintance Fletcher Christian, known to one and all as the chief mutineer of The Bounty. Hay muchos capítulos intermedios en los que no pasa casi nada y en los últimos podríamos decir que se concentra toda la historia. McDermid (A Clean Break) enters new ground with a dark tale that is more complex, more carefully crafted and far more disturbing than her Kate Brannigan mysteries.I am not a great Wordsworth fan but have visited Dove Cottage and am familiar with that area of the Lake District. Jane Gresham, native of a small village in the Lake District, is an impoverished graduate scholar specializing in William Wordsworth, a local boy. The discovery of a man’s skeleton atop an Edinburgh building slated for demolition kick-starts Diamond Dagger Award–winner McDermid’s hit-or-miss follow-up to 2008’s A Darker Domain.

The majority of the story was set in the Lake District and descriptions of waterfalls and hills and lakes, as always, appealed to the geography geek in me. A new chief constable, James Blake, arrives at Bradfield CID in McDermid's excellent sixth Tony Hill novel (after Beneath the Bleeding).Oh, and as for the idea of a connection between Christian and Wordsworth, it seems that while the families did know each other and the boys were at the same school, there was a six-year age gap which at that time of life likely precludes them having much to do with each other.
