About The House at Sea's End by Elly Griffiths

Returning from maternity leave, forensic archaeologist Ruth Galloway is called to a remote Norfolk beach, where human bones have surfaced. The remains belong to six men whose arms were bound, and date to the Second World War. Ruth must manage the demands of motherhood and work while investigating the discovery alongside DCI Harry Nelson, the married father of her daughter.

The inquiry leads to Home Guard veteran Archie Whitcliffe and a secret kept by the old soldiers. When Archie is killed and a German journalist asks about Operation Lucifer—a plan to prevent a German invasion—the case raises questions about a possible British war crime. This third Ruth Galloway mystery may appeal to readers of crime fiction drawn to forensic archaeology and wartime secrets.
