The Gallery of Bones
(2026)(The first book in the British Heritage Mystery series)
A novel by Mandy Byatt
"I inhaled this book in a couple of sittings: it was propulsive, engaging and with an emotional heart. I loved it." Emily BarrIntroducing Kate Threadgold. A motorbike-loving heritage curator, she’s back in her hometown, restoring the Geological Gallery at Biddulph Grange, a historic English garden.
Kate wasn’t keen to return home. She’s haunted by the hurt she caused when she left. And by the memories of her friend who went missing in the Grange thirty years ago. Still, there’s not long until the Gallery launch and then she’ll be out of there and onto her next placement.
But then the Gallery’s palaeontologist is found murdered.
Introducing DS Ryan Dee. Accused of being a nepo baby by his ogre of a boss, Ryan is quietly ambitious and determined to make his mark. But he has a secret he can’t even admit to himself. And another he can’t admit to his boss – he and Kate were once lovers.
Can Kate and Ryan work together to solve the murder? And stop the murderer striking again as past and present collide?
The Gallery of Bones is a gripping, character-led mystery perfect for fans of Elly Griffiths, Ann Cleeves and Rachel McLean.
