Once again Nell Pratt has to dig into the past to solve a murder in the
present....
Between the challenges of her position as president of the Pennsylvania
Antiquarian Society in Philadelphia and of taking her relationship with
FBI agent James Morrison to the next level, Nell Pratt has got her hands
full. Nevertheless, when a powerful developer approaches the Society to
make sure the old dairy farm he wants to level is not hiding any
archeological or historical surprises that could derail the project he's
planning, Nell decides to make time to personally accompany him to the
proposed site. But when they get to the property, they stumble upon a
startling discovery - a body floating face down in a pond. The dead man
turns out to be an amateur history enthusiast who may have uncovered
secrets about the farm that got him killed. Now it's up to Nell and
James to get to the bottom of things before there are more deadly
developments....
