The Grave Tattoo by Val McDermid

This was a freebie I picked up and I am glad that I did.  It took me a few chapters to get into it and then I really had a hard time putting it down.  There are two stories going on and they are woven together beautifully.  The basis of the story is about a woman, Jane, who is a Wordsworth's scholar and has a theory about a lost manuscript.  A body shows up in a peat bog that spurns on her theory and an amazing tale rolls out from there.  There is mystery and death, conspiracy and revelation and a book that is hard to let go.
