Alumna puts together ‘Airtight Case’
UGA alumna Beverly Connor has released Airtight Case, the fifth book in the Lindsay Chamberlain mystery series, which weaves her professional experiences as an archaeologist and her knowledge of Southern culture into inter-linked stories of the past and present.
As the book opens, forensic anthropologist Lindsay is attacked in a seemingly random event and left for dead. Although she manages to escape, she suffers from amnesia. The assault looms over Lindsay when she joins an excavation at an 1830s farm site. Unlike previous digs where she has worked, this site is not a happy one. And Lindsay, the only one at the site who doesn’t believe in ghosts, is the only one seeing them. The excitement over the discovery of very old sealed lead coffins puts all Lindsay’s anxieties on the back burner. However, inside one of the coffins are disturbing remains of a woman who has something frighteningly in common with Lindsay. When one of the crew disappears, no one but Lindsay is worried or seems to care. If Lindsay doesn’t figure out what’s going one, she might lose her sanity, or worse, her life.
