  30. The Relic Hunter 
  A private jet crashes in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, killing everyone on board.

  So why was he on a private jet on the other side of the world? 
  And why, as his plane entered its fatal descent, did he send a text message to his wife containing just three simple words: 
  “FIND SAM REILLY!”

  But then something happened that science couldn’t explain. 
  Within hours, the video Kelly captured of the incident went viral. 
  32. Necropolis of the Gods

  Long before American adventuress Beryl Helliwell and prim and proper Brit Edwina Davenport teamed up as enquiry agents to solve mysteries, they attempted to unravel the mysteries of deportment and elocution. Now it’s back to school for the sleuths when murder strikes at their alma mater … 
   
  Neither Beryl nor Edwina are the least bit interested in attending events at their alma mater, Miss Dupont’s Finishing School for Young Ladies. Their lives are very full indeed in the village of Walmsley Parva. However, when a letter arrives from Miss Dupont herself requesting their help in a professional capacity, they  
  reluctantly pack their bags for London. 
   
  Upon arrival, they learn from Miss Dupont that her business has seen a steep decline since the days before World War I and that now she is concerned a saboteur is attempting to damage the school’s reputation. Students have reported items missing, damaged possessions, and strange noises in the night. Some of the  
  girls even insist ghostly forces are at play. 
   
  Then a former classmate of theirs and mother of a prospective student is found dead on the school grounds. The roll call of suspects is long, and if Beryl and Edwina are to have a ghost of a chance of solving the murder, they can’t rule out the possibility that Miss Dupont herself may have finished off the victim …
