A powerful psychological thriller featuring crime fiction's most unusual and engaging British Detective, DC Fiona Griffiths.
'Chilling, atmospheric and so gripping it hurts. The Dead House is a masterpiece. You won't read a better crime novel this year' MARK EDWARDS
On a wild October night, the body of a young woman is found in a remote country churchyard. She's wearing nothing but a thin, white dress. There are no marks of violence and no obvious cause of death.
Who is the victim? Why is she here?
But another young woman went missing from the area a few years back, and DC Fiona Griffiths soon suspects a crime even more chilling than she first imagined.
Will she unlock the secrets of the dead house? Or will she become its next victim?
Praise for the Fiona Griffiths mystery series:
'One of the most interesting and complicated protagonists in current UK crime fiction. Truly unforgettable' Mick Herron
'In a word - brilliant. One of the most enjoyable crime novels I've read in a while' James Oswald
'This cleverly plotted police procedural introduces a likeable, maverick detective destined for a bestseller following' Choice
'Compelling...a new crime talent to treasure' Daily Mail
'Gritty, compelling...a procedural unlike any other you are likely to read this year' USA Today
Fans of Angela Marsons, Peter James and Ann Cleeves will be gripped by the other titles in the Fiona Griffiths mystery series:
1. Talking to the Dead
2. Love Story, With Murders
3. The Strange Death of Fiona Griffiths
4. This Thing of Darkness
5. The Dead House
6. The Deepest Grave (coming soon!)
If you're looking for a crime thriller series to keep you hooked, then go no further: you've just found it.
** Each Fiona Griffiths thriller can be read as a standalone or in series order **
Praise for The Dead House: A chilling British detective crime thriller
-
With Detective Constable Fiona 'Fi' Griffiths, Harry Bingham finds a sweet spot in crime fiction - a female protagonist with stunted emotions, a passion for protecting women (think Stieg Larsson's Lisbeth Salander), outsider status (think Denise Mina's 'Paddy' Meehan), sheer guts, and an unstoppable drive to follow her own instincts even when it means breaking every rule in the book (think Lee Childs's Jack Reacher) - BOSTON GLOBE

This compelling crime novel . . . amply proves the freshness and flair that he [Bingham] has brought to the police procedural. Written with unexpected warmth and wry observation, it brings its gruesome story to life without turning the stomach . . . Surprisingly delicate, it weaves a sinuous, seductive spell and confirms we have a new crime talent to treasure - DAILY MAIL
-
Bingham has gotten inside the mind of his clever, neurotic heroine so well as to make her seem entirely credible . . . An interesting, unusual and in some ways even moving crime novel - LITERARY REVIEW
-
This cleverly plotted police procedural introduces a likeable, maverick detective destined for a bestseller following - CHOICE
-
DC Fiona Griffiths is ditsy, funny, stubborn and sharp . . . Bingham provides a spirited Welsh response to the Scottish domination of British crime fiction - THE TIMES
Harry Bingham
I'm Harry Bingham. I write crime novels and love it. When I'm not doing that, I run the Writers' Workshop, a literary consultancy. I live in Oxfordshire, England, but I spent a lot of my childhood in Wales, where my crime novels are set. Things I love apart from writing: wild swimming, rock-climbing, walking and dogs. I'm married, have four kids, and I love my life.
