Summary

When the truth lies out of sight...

West Wales, 1850. When an old tree root is dug up, the remains of a young woman are found. Harry Probert-Lloyd, a young barrister forced home from London by encroaching blindness, has been dreading this discovery.

He knows exactly whose bones they are.

Working with his clerk, John Davies, Harry is determined to expose the guilty. But the investigation turns up more questions than answers and raises long-buried secrets.

The search for the truth will prove costly. But will Harry and John pay the highest price?

An exceptional Victorian Welsh crime thriller, perfect for fans of Laura Shepherd-Robinson, Andrew Taylor and S. W. Perry.

I've not been so gripped by a book since first reading sir Arthur Conan-Doyle

the journey is one sceemless adventure through ones imagination. the author, like very few I've read, seems to be unfolding the truth of the story at the perfect pace as to keep you on tenterhooks to find the next revelation. a truly fantastic book. Read flawlessly by the perfectly cast Iestun Arwel, who's voice I shall always associate with Harry and John any time I hear it

Captivating

Exceptionally well written historical fiction set in West Wales. Although the plot is fictional the book gives an insight of life in 19th Century rural Wales. It is clear that the author thoroughly researched the Rebecca Riots. I come from this part of the world I found this book very educational.
Great narration with a genuine West Wales Welsh accent!
I will definitely buy the next book in this series.

Enchanting

I was gripped from start to finish. The narrator was also fabulous. I’m not usually a fan of historical crime writing but I absolutely loved’None so Blind’. I didn’t want it to end.

My new favourite author

Wonderful historical crime fiction. Welsh setting is brought to life, the characters and story are engaging and the narrator is a joy to listen to.

Gripping...

I don't usually read crime novels, but I'd heard about this series and wanted to try.
I don't regret the decision at all. From the start Alis Hawkins sweeps you up in her narrative, the characters become like people you've know for years and the desire to untangle the superbly crafted plot grows stronger....
I've just bought my second crime novel... Thank you Alis.

Interesting and educating

I really enjoyed this story for two reasons. Firstly I thought that the characters were well developed and I found myself invested in their lives and experiences. So often historical fiction focuses on romance above all, but I felt like we got a better, more well-rounded idea of the lives and experiences of the people in this book. Secondly I loved the weaving in of history. I'd never heard of the Rebecca riots before and it led me to go and do further research to learn more. A great first book to a lovely series.
