Mystery
Aaron Elkins brings back the Skeleton
Detective, Gideon Oliver, for another cozy mystery.
Gideon Oliver is a physical anthropologist who loves his
work, and he is happy to travel to Gibraltar to honor
the achievements of an elderly archeologist who has
positively influenced the field. Gibraltar is well-known
for many things, but especially the discovery of the
First Family. When archeologists uncovered the First
Family, they discovered an unexpected relationship
between Neanderthals and humans. When an announcement is
made that Gideon's presentation will involve the
revelation of a shocking secret, someone is determined
to silence Gideon, by whatever means necessary.
Mixing science and humor, UNEASY RELATIONS is a smart
and fun cozy that will keep readers hooked until the
very last page. Forensic science, savvy police work, and
ancient history keep the novel entertaining to the last
page. If you haven't any other Gideon Oliver adventures,
don't worry—you won't feel left out, although you will
probably seek out more of his adventures after you enjoy
UNEASY RELATIONS!
