UGA campus key in alumna’s mystery series
Beverly Connor holds a graduate degree in archaeology from UGA. She has served as a laboratory researcher and field archaeologist at several sites in the Southeast, specializing in lithic analysis and bone identification.
Using her experience as an archaeologist, Connor weaves stories of prehistoric native America with modern mysteries, intertwined with methods of modern forensic archaeology.
The series features Lindsay Chamberlain, a fictional forensic archaeologist at UGA, who solves crimes that did not happen just yesterday.
In Dressed to Die, the third book in the mystery series, Chamberlain is hired to locate and examine the remains of a wealthy woman and faculty member who has disappeared. Chamberlain’s findings raise more questions than they answer, however.
Meanwhile, Chamberlain’s brother arrives for a visit with crates from their archaeologist grandfather’s farm, bringing family turmoil and still more unresolved questions.
When the artifacts disappear from the university, and Chamberlain and her students are threatened, the stakes are raised. Job, reputation and life on the line, Chamberlain must find a killer and a thief before the police arrest her and her brother.
