Bone-chilling cases featuring the forensic anthropologist known as the Skeleton Detective, in the Edgar Award-winning series "that never disappoints" ( The Philadelphia Inquirer). Edgar Award winner and former anthropologist Aaron Elkins "thoroughly understands the art of the murder mystery" ( The Philadelphia Inquirer). In books five through seven from the long-running Skeleton Detective series, Elkins brings back his "likable, down-to-earth cerebral sleuth," Professor Gideon Oliver ( Chicago Tribune). Curses!: Mayan ruins in the Yucatán... a secret room in a tomb... age-old skeletons... Anthropologist Gideon Oliver is thrilled to join the archaeological excavation of Tlaloc-until ancient Mayan curses against desecrators of the site seem to materialize as modern murders. "Another delightful semiserious romp through science and an exotic police culture." - Publishers Weekly Icy Clutches: On a trip to Glacier Bay, Alaska, with his forest ranger wife, Julie, the Skeleton Detective pursues a coldhearted killer who buries evidence in an avalanche. "A literate, amiable story... a credible plot, a likable hero." - Kirkus Reviews Make No Bones: In accordance with the wishes of Albert Evan Jasper, after his demise in a car crash, his remains-a few charred bits of bone-are installed in an Oregon museum to create a fascinating macabre exhibit. A fitting end for the "dean of American forensic anthropologists"-until what is left of him disappears during the biannual meeting-a.k.a. the "bone bash and weenie roast"-of the Western Association of Forensic Anthropologists. Gideon has one question: Why? "[A] seamlessly plotted corker of a mystery... Readers who like their humor dark and their gumshoes smart are sure to enjoy the 'bone bash.'" - Publishers Weekly
