Sitten päästään itse juoneen. Mielestäni ei ollut kovin loogista, että kirjeiden lähettäjä ja lasten katoamisesta vastuussa oleva olivat eri henkilöitä. Lisäksi en pidä siitä tavasta, miten lopussa syyllisille kävi köpelösti, ja miten sekaisin tekijät lopulta olivat. Se tuntui kummalliselta.
Oma lukunsa on tietysti Ruthin ja Nelsonin tekoset, ja varsinkin lopun paljastus… En usko, että jatkan enää tätä sarjaa, vaikka kirja ihan suhteellisen viihdyttävä olikin.

I do enjoy an academic setting when there's not too much internal politics or romance. I wasn't a fan of the romance in the book for...reasons but the polyamory representation was good (although we need more of that in more books as this version was not the only version). Some objectifying stuff about women being attractive or unattractive (and fat) but I suspect the main agenda is to start to unpack that throughout the series (I hope so). Archaeology is quite an interesting choice of discipline too.
I would read more of these besides Griffiths is a favourite.

- LAST RITUALS by Yrsa Sigurðardóttir—this was another book from this genre that I read because of its connections to archaeology and certain historical subjects that I’m interested in and that was similarly disappointing in its handling of those topics, though maybe not as much as Griffiths’ book.
