About this ebook

A stolen skeleton leads to a web of mystery: "Those who treasure quirky characters, lively dialogue, and ingenious plots will be delighted" ( Booklist).

In England, a skeleton from Roman times goes missing from the site of an archaeological dig—as does the man overseeing the project. In Baghdad, a diplomat dies suddenly. And in California, a scientist commits suicide.

These three events are in fact linked—and one tough, determined woman may be about to unravel a shocking conspiracy that lies behind them all, in this lively mystery by "one of Britain's most consistently excellent crime novelists" ( The Times, London).

"The captivating cast includes an obnoxious student of archaeology, a fraudulent town official, a vaguely clairvoyant eccentric, a couple of mysterious brothers, and various other folks who aren't quite what they seem to be." — Booklist

"Reginald Hill delivers literate, complex, and immensely satisfying thrillers." — Orlando Sentinel
