TO TREAD WHERE MALICE LINGERS...
While most travel to Concord, Massachusetts to relive
America’s Revolutionary past, Harvard professor Sweeney
St. George has come looking for a different sort of
history. An expert on funerary art, she roams the local
cemeteries, fascinated by the macabre carvings of a
celebrated stonecutter and hero of the Revolution—a
project that takes a strange turn when a man dressed in a
uniform of 1775 is found murdered in the nearby woods.
IN MESSAGES FROM THE DEAD
With police suspecting that the victim may be a missing
Cambridge scholar who had been researching the very same
historical figure as Sweeney, the investigation draws her
in. Now, searching for clues in the weathered stone
markers of the dearly departed, and with the help of a
precocious twelve-year-old boy and Cambridge police
detective Tim Quinn, Sweeney St. George closes in on a 230-
year-old enigma—and a desperate killer without remorse.
