Overview
Anthropology professor Gideon Oliver would prefer to keep his mind on his beautiful new bride Julie during their English honeymoon, but one intrusive question will not stop nagging at him: Who would want to steal a thirtyāthousandāyearāold parietoāoccipital calvarial fragment?
Yet someone has lifted this chunk of prehistoric human skull from a musty museum in Dorchester. Then, thirty miles away, an archaeology student is murdered, increasing tension and suspicion at a dig that had already seethed with suspicion, rivalry, and mistrust. Could there be a connection between a hot bone and a coldāblooded murder? Gideon is called on by the police to apply the unique skills for which the media have named him āthe Skeleton Detective,ā and he reluctantly agrees. Before he is done, his sleuthing will lead him to another murder and willāin the most literal and terrifying manner imaginableāsic the dogs on him, putting Gideon himself, and Julie as well, in mortal danger . . .
Murder in the Queenās Armes is a suspenseful, fun-filled whodunit by the author of the Alix London and Chris Norgren seriesāa celebrated master who āthoroughly understands the art of the murder mysteryā (The Philadelphia Inquirer).
Murder in the Queenās Armes is the 3rd book in the Gideon Oliver Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
