Gripping, enticing and lots of cleverly thought plot twists. Although it is a novel, this book is very informative with lots of facts about our past.

It was imaginative and I'm glad it had something to do with the British museum

This book is set in the immediate aftermath of the second world war. The main theme is Archaeology. It is about a girl called Ruth who investigated someone's farm after they found treasure. I would reccomend it to people who like reading stories about mysteries, the war or treasure.
