Playing with bones

Ellis, Kate, 1953-2023
Books
On a grey October morning, the body of a strangled teenager is found in the North Yorkshire city of Eborby, with a mutilated doll lying by her side. Singmass Close, where the girl is found, has a famously sinister past. Reputedly haunted by the ghosts of children, it was the hunting ground of the Doll Strangler, a ruthless killer of the 1950s who was never brought to justice. With the recent disappearance of a young female and an escaped convict at large, this horrific murder stretches Detective Inspector Joe Plantagenet's team to the limit. Could the Doll Strangler really be back, or is a copycat killer on the loose? As the deaths start mounting up and Joe's questioning brings him closer to the murderer, he comes to suspect a shockingly creepy connection between all three cases...
