About Bog Queen by Anna North
When a remarkably well-preserved body is found in a bog in northwest England, American forensic anthropologist Agnes is called to investigate. Its bones are more than two thousand years old, drawing her into the story of an Iron Age woman and the circumstances of her death.
Anna North’s novel moves between post-Brexit England and Celtic Europe at the dawn of the Roman era. In the present, Agnes’s investigation unfolds amid competing claims over the bog: peat-cutters seek to profit from it, while activists argue that the land should remain undisturbed.
Readers interested in historical fiction, archaeology, forensic investigation, and stories that connect the ancient past with present-day questions may find Bog Queen compelling.
