The Man in Black and Other Stories
Ratings2
Average rating3.8
Confession time: before I picked up this book I hadn't read anything by Elly Griffiths. And why not, I hear you cry. Well, because there are so many great books out there, and so little time to read them all.
This collection of short stories seemed like a good way to acquaint myself with the author's work, and it was a good choice.
The Man in Black and Other Stories contains 18 short stories. Some feature characters that fans of Griffiths will be familiar with, such as Ruth Galloway and Harbinder Kaur. Others are ghost stories, one of which, The Village Church, was my favourite.
I enjoyed all of the stories in this book, but a few stood out for me:
Justice Jones and the Etherphone
The Village Church
The Stranger
What I Saw From the Sky
Flint's Fireside Tale. 🐱
All in all an exceedingly good read.
