The villagers have intense, intertwined histories. Everybody bears a secret. Superstitions abound. And the village itself is slowly sinking into the mines beneath it.<\/p>\n<p>Not even the arrival of forensics pioneer Dr. Bernard Kingsley seems to help. In fact, the more the three of them investigate, the more they realize they may never be allowed to leave. . . .<\/p>\n<p>From The Yard author Alex Grecian comes The Black Country- a horrifying journey into the darkest backwoods of Victorian Britain. The Black Country is guaranteed to appeal to fans of recent Ripper TV dramas (BBCs Ripper Street, ITVs Whitechapel) as well as Guy Ritchies Sherlock Holmes films.<\/p>\n<p>Praise for Alex Grecian:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":34068,"parent":0,"template":"","book_type":[6],"book_author":[3411],"class_list":["post-59854","book","type-book","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","book_type-fiction","book_author-alex-grecian"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mybookzone.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/book\/59854","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mybookzone.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/book"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mybookzone.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/book"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mybookzone.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/34068"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mybookzone.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=59854"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"book_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mybookzone.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/book_type?post=59854"},{"taxonomy":"book_author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mybookzone.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/book_author?post=59854"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
