In the next installment of the Ardis Cole series, Ardis travels to Scotland to do a facial reconstruction on a skull historian Bruce McBrier believes to be the remains of Sir William, a medieval ancestor murdered in battle.
When Ardis makes the shocking discovery that the remains are of a more recent murder, with the help of Chief Inspector Mark Ridley, she goes ahead with the facial reconstruction in hopes the victim can be identified.
But someone is willing to go to great lengths, even murder, to keep the skull's deadly secret. |
