Review; The Chalk Pit by Elly Griffiths

I had the reading challenges I participate in when I entered my favourite secondhand bookstore a few months ago and I was fortunate enough to find The Chalk Pit by Elly Griffiths, which fitted the bill for the Cloak and Dagger Mystery Challenge. Today I'll post my review of the book.

Description from Goodreads
Boiled human bones have been found in Norwich's web of underground tunnels. When Dr Ruth Galloway discovers they are recent - the boiling not the medieval curiosity she thought - DCI Nelson has a murder enquiry on his hands.

Meanwhile, DS Judy Johnson is investigating the disappearance of a local rough sleeper. The only trace of her is the rumour that she's gone 'underground'. This might be a figure of speech, but with the discovery of the bones and the rumours both Ruth and the police have heard of a vast network of old chalk-mining tunnels under King's Lynn, home to a vast community of rough sleepers, the clues point in only one direction. Local academic Martin Kellerman knows all about the tunnels and their history - but can his assertions of cannibalism and ritual killing possibly be true?

As the weather gets hotter, tensions rise. A local woman goes missing and the police are under attack. Ruth and Nelson must unravel the dark secrets of The Underground and discover just what gruesome secrets lurk at its heart - before it claims another victim.

My Thoughts on the Novel
What I liked about this book was the different POV's, female lead and that it had different layers to it. What bugged me a little bit was the ending of it all - it felt a bit rushed in a way.
