Mystery
Forensics professor Gideon Oliver accompanies his wife to
the Isles of Scilly, which dot the sea like an emerald
necklace thirty miles off the Cornwall coast. Julie's been
invited here by Russian expatriate Vasily Kozlov,
scientist, millionaire, and eccentric. At his home, Star
Castle, he regularly hosts a consortium of guests with
differing opinions-which makes for some very heated
arguments. While Julie's stuck indoors, Gideon looks forward to
puttering around the Neolithic sites nearby. But before
day one is through, a newer bone turns up-this tibia is
only a few years old-and all signs point to murder. And
just as Gideon and the local law puzzle over the bone's
origin, another murder happens at Star Castle. Could it
just be bad luck, two murders within a couple of years? Or
do Kozlov's lively debates have a way of turning deadly?
