Kept me intrigued from beginning to end, and although the subject-matter is distressing, it was not too graphic to read about. I was a bit confused about the motivations of one of the characters but it did all come out pretty clear in the end. A deft handling of a difficult subject. Not having read the first 3 novels in this series, I felt I was a bit behind as I didn't know the backstory of several of the characters. I think the book would have been much more enjoyable had I known more about the characters. Otherwise, the book was an enjoyable read, and the mysteries solved with a satisfactory conclusion. This story moves between the time that Hazel Micallef was 14 and present day, when she is about 64. Hazel is brought back to the time when a neighborhood girl, Carol Lim, has disappeared. The story is personal as she knew Carol, and Hazel's adopted brother, Alan, was considered a suspect in the disappearance. Additionally, Hazel and her team are investigating the discovery of bones on a building site in present times. These bones are connected to a boys' home that is no longer in operation. Oddly, people associated with the building site and the development of the site are murdered. #TheNightBell #IngerAshWolfe sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

The Night Bell moves between the past and the present in Port Dundas, Ontario, as two mysteries converge. A discovery of the bones of murdered children is made on land that was once a county foster home. Now it's being developed as a brand new subdivision whose first residents are already railing against broken promises and corruption. But when three of these residents are murdered after the discovery of the children's bones, frustration turns to terror. While trying to stem the panic and solve two crimes at once, Hazel Micallef finds her memory stirred back to the fall of 1959, when the disappearance of a girl from town was blamed on her adopted brother. Although he is long dead, she begins to see the present case as a chance to clear her brother's name, something that drives Hazel beyond her own considerable limits and right into the sights of an angry killer."
