The Merchant's House by Kate Ellis
4.0

DS Wesley Peterson #1. Newly arrived in the West Country town of Tradmouth, a child goes missing and a young woman is brutally murdered on a lonely cliff path. Then his Wes's old friend, archaeologist Neil Watson, unearths the skeletons of a woman and a newborn baby in the cellar of an ancient merchant's house nearby. The story of the skeletons and the missing child mirror each other while Wes and his wife are trying to get pregnant. I like the writing style, the mystery and the characters. A short and satisfying story.
