BEVERLY CONNOR
    AN OBSIDIAN MYSTERY

    Praise for the Novels of Beverly Connor
    ‘‘Calls to mind the forensic mysteries of Aaron Elkins and Patricia Cornwell. However, Connor’s sleuth in fuses the mix with her own brand of spice as a pert and brainy scholar in the forensic analysis of bones.... Chases, murder attempts and harrowing rescues add to this fast-paced adventure.’’ — Chicago Sun-Times
    ‘‘Connor combines smart people, fun people, and dan gerous people in a novel hard to put down.’’ — The Dallas Morning News
    ‘‘Connor grabs the reader with her first sentence and never lets up until the book’s end....The story satisfies both as a mystery and as an entre´e into the fascinating world of bones. . . . Add Connor’s dark humor, and you have a multidimensional mystery that deserves comparison with the best of Patricia Cornwell.’’
    — Booklist (starred review)
    ‘‘In Connor’s latest multifaceted tale, the plot is ser pentine, the solution ingenious, the academic politics vicious... chock-full of engrossing anthropological and archaeological detail.’’ — Publishers Weekly
    continued...
    ‘‘Connor’s books are a smart blend of Patricia Cornwell, Aaron Elkins, and Elizabeth Peters, with some good, deep-South atmosphere to make it authentic.’’
    — Oklahoma Family Magazine
    ‘‘Crisp dialogue, interesting characters, fascinating tid bits of bone lore, and a murderer that eluded me. When I started reading, I couldn’t stop. What more could you ask for? Enjoy.’’
    —Virginia Lanier, author of the Bloodhound series
    ‘‘Beverly Connor has taken the dry bones of scientific inquiry and resurrected them into living, breathing characters. I couldn’t put [it] down until I was finished, even though I wanted to savor the story. I predict that Beverly Connor will become a major player in the field of mystery writing.’’
    —David Hunter, author of The Dancing Savior
    ‘‘Fans of... Patricia Cornwell will definitely want to read Beverly Connor . . . an author on the verge of superstardom.’’ — Midwest Book Review
