Four Thousand Days by M.J. Trow
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

October 1900
Constable Adam Crawford enjoys attending the public lectures at University College, and on discovering the body of Alice Groves in her rooms he knows that she really is student Helen Richardson. But is she, and why was she killed. Dr Murray is approached to help, and evidence leads her to Herne Bay where she meets ex-Detective Reid. Soon he also discovers a body of an archaeological student. But the murders don’t stop there.
Crawford, Reid and Murray investigate while Inspector Blunt looks for the quickest solution.
An entertaining and well-written historical mystery with its cast of likeable and varied characters. A good start to a new series.
An ARC was provided by the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
