  "It's absolutely delightful, and I would recommend it to anyone who's a fan of Sarah Caudwell, or Agatha Christie, or anyone who loves really clever British murder mysteries set in the '20s." - Gillian Flynn, international bestselling author of Gone Girl. 
    
  After eight years in South Africa, Charles Knox returns to England a wealthy man, determined to put his past behind him. But when he is invited to Sissingham Hall, the Norfolk home of Sir Neville Strickland, he finds that the past is already waiting for him in the form of Rosamund, Sir Neville’s beautiful wife—and Charles’s former fiancée. 
    
  For Charles the weekend is a chance to re-establish his position in society, but from the very first evening tensions start to gather. Rosamund still attracts him more than he likes, Sir Neville is troubled, and every guest at Sissingham seems to be hiding something. 
    
  Then Sir Neville is found dead in his study. Was the culprit an outsider—or someone in the house? As suspicion begins to fall on one guest after another, Charles joins forces with the perceptive Angela Marchmont in an effort to solve the mystery. But as the investigation deepens, old affections and divided loyalties draw him into danger, and he soon realises that the truth may demand a terrible sacrifice. 
    
  A classic 1920s country-house murder mystery, perfect for fans of traditional British detective fiction.

  The car fire didn't kill Navajo Tribal Policeman Delbert Nez—a bullet did. And the old man in possession of the murder weapon is a whiskey-soaked shaman named Ashie Pinto. Officer Jim Chee is devastated by the slaying of his good friend Del,  
  and confounded by the prime suspect's refusal to utter a single word of confession or denial. 
   
  Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn believes there is much more to this outrage than what appears on the surface, as he and Jim Chee set out to unravel a complex weave of greed and death that involves a historical find and a lost fortune. But the hungry  
  and mythical trickster Coyote is waiting, as always, in the shadows to add a strange and deadly new twist.

When she finds herself dangling off a mountain peak, Sam wonders if her nose for mystery may have taken her too far this time.
