Arthur Ellis Award nominee Lyn Hamilton's Archeological Mysteries have captivated travelers, collectors, and mystery readers alike. Now, in The Etruscan Chimera, antiques dealer Lara McClintoch is hired by a reclusive billionaire to purchase an obscure Etruscan sculpture. But the land of old Tuscany hides danger behind its charm, as Lara finds out when she discovers a prominent collector buried in his own Etruscan tomb.… (plus d'informations)
This would be the sixth Lara McClintoch book, and I would go as far as to say possibly the best in the series so far, it has just the right mix of all the required elements in a good mystery novel.
It takes us initially into the orbit of a reclusive billionaire who hires Lara to track down a rare bronze statue, however upon following up the leads Lara finds the statue is a fake and it's here where things begin to get messy and the eccentric owner of said statue turns up dead.
Worth having a look at if you were interested in the earlier novels but turned off by the pace or structure of them as both are vastly improved here. ( )
