RAGS TO BONES
by Linda Gatto
In 2014, after some five years of research, Tavernicus published Rags to Bones by Linda Gatto. This is the true story of a child lost, a village searching through the night, a body found. The child, Eleanor Windle, a distant relation of the author, was murdered and worse on August 20 1881 in the Derbyshire village of Brimington, close to Chesterfield, Linda's home town. Follow the events and the characters involved day by day until the eventual outcome in November 1881. The book is available from Amazon
only as a print on demand book for £9.99 or from Kindle as an e-book for £2.39
