About This Book
An Arnold Landon mystery novel.
At the request of his friend Dr Rena Williams, Arnold Landon is delegated to help out at a Romano-Celtic burial dig at Garrigill, and, after a dinner party given by local landowner Stephen Alston, soon realizes that present-day sexual tensions are seething beneath the surface at this ancient site. However, he is not prepared for the shocking turn that events are to take: a member of the team is found brutally murdered.
Suspicion falls initially on Professor Geoffrey Westwood who had been involved in a feud with the dead woman. Then it emerges that Stephen Alston had also fallen out with the victim and that she was being harassed by an old boyfriend. When a man is arrested and charged with the killing, it looks as though the mystery has been solved, but it is soon to get even murkier as Landon himself is attacked by an unknown assailant.
