Items related to The Frozen Shroud (Lake District Cold-Case Mysteries)
Death has come twice to Ravenbank, a remote community in England's Lake District, each time on Hallowe'en. In 1914, a young woman's corpse was found, with a makeshift shroud frozen to her battered face. Her ghost - the Faceless Woman - is said to walk through Ravenbank on Hallowe'en. Five years ago, another woman was murdered, and again her face was covered to hide her injuries. Daniel Kind becomes fascinated by the old cases, and wonders whether the obvious suspects really did commit the crimes.

Review:
'The ongoing story of Hannah and Daniel puts the 'icing on the cake.' The 'cake' is a beautifully constructed novel with characters that are rounded and believable, all mixed together with a clever plot and a satisfying end. The 'jam' that holds it all together is the atmosphere of the lakes in autumn which Edwards writes so well. Here is murder past and present with themes of jealousy and obsessive love.I highly recommend this book. If you haven't read the series, start now.' Mystery People
