England, 1783: In Island of Bones, Crowther’s haunting past is at last revealed. For years he has pursued his forensic studies - and the occasional murder investigation - far from his family estate. But an ancient tomb there will reveal a wealth of secrets. When laborers discover an extra body inside, the lure of the mystery brings Crowther home at last. Fans of both historical fiction à la Anne Perry and the intricate forensics of Tess Gerritsen will be delighted by Robertson’s latest.

The atmosphere is beautifully described by the author. This author has created a series with characters lively and complex. This book goes beyond mystery as it grips the reader in the tangled web of family secrets. I am anxious for the fourth book to come out as an audible book, because I love the listening to this series. I have found listening to this series has been more entertaining that the offerings on television. Imogen Robertson spins a fabulous tale!

Great visual depictionWhat three words best describe Jenny Sterlin’s voice?
OK, but limited lower (mens) voicesDid you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
NO. NeitherAny additional comments?
I've read many mysteries taking place from the medieval times to Victorian. Robertson, is one of my top 3...Ariana Franklin, C.J. Sansome.. in their ability to make you feel you are actually with the characters and you experience what they do. The subtle nuances of historical detail...dress, transportation, food, language, etc. are spot on.Above other mystery writers

The author seems to know a lot about the history of this time, and cares enough about it to be consistent, and to employ elements and events large and small in her story lines. I get an impression of a lot of research, of an encyclopedic command of the details. Characters have conversations studded with topics and terms showing real familiarity with period skills and news of the day, world events are pressing on their minds, they are plagued by the limits of period science and belief, they are completely creatures of the world that Robertson has recreated. It is a treat to spend some time in that world looking around corners, noticing the little treasures and delights scattered in your path all for the sake of atmosphere and immersion in the time period.
I recommend this book without hesitation.
