During the demolition of a factory, a shocking discovery is made. A mummified corpse is uncovered under a pile of rocks. The body is surrounded by ten objects that provide tantalising clues as to its identity.

Phosphate Rocks: A Death in 10 Objects unravels the mystery using a mix of real life anecdote, scientific explanation and a touch of fiction.

Inspired by Primo Levi, in the style of Dan Brown, this is the portrait of a factory in all its complex, glorious, interconnected, messy entirety. A hymn to the forgotten, the unknown and the misunderstood, this is the story of an industry in decline and some of the fine people taken down with it.
