Description
There's one corpse too many in this ingenious mystery featuring husband-and-wife sleuth duo PI Rosco Polycrates and crossword editor Belle Graham The residents of the bucolic Massachusetts hamlet are up in arms. A developer has bought the sprawling Quigley homestead, and his construction crew is causing a ruckus digging up the land. The noise stops abruptly when a female skeleton is found buried in the garden. Hired to find out who killed Jane Doe-and why-cop-turned-investigator Rosco show more Polycrates and his wife, crossword editor Belle Graham, discover an insular community that doesn't take kindly to outsiders. With the local police labeling it a cold case, they have their work cut out for them. Add arson and a double homicide, and the grid is set for a brainteaser that just might stump two of New England's most dedicated crime busters-if it doesn't kill them first. This ebook includes six crossword puzzles that can be downloaded as PDFs, with answers in the back of the book. Corpus de Crossword is the 5th book in the Crossword Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order. show lessTags
