Book Description
Two years after the events of The Serpent's Tale, the Celts continue to fight Henry II, believing that King Arthur will return to repel the invading Saxons. When two bodies are discovered, Henry calls on Adelia to prove they are those of Arthur and Guinevere. If she does, the Celts should fall into line. In her third mystery featuring King Henry's mistress of the art of death, Ariana Franklin delivers another perfect mix of history, legend, mystery, and thriller.

Beware: Grave Goods and Relics of the Dead the same,
By
This review is from: Relics of the Dead (Mistress of the Art of Death 3) (Paperback)
BEWARE: Ariana Franklin's « Grave Goods » and « Relics of the Dead » are the same book with different titles. It seems to me that this fact should be noted in the description. This is not the first time this has happened on Amazon.

The best in the genre!,
By
This review is from: Grave Goods (Paperback)
I had this book pre-ordered for months after reading the first two, and just devoured it. Franklin's heroine & writing style are so superior to all the other well-known names in this genre; I'm expecting her to take many awards for this series. A masterful suspense writer! A must-read. Can't wait for more. (The first two books: Mistress of the Art of Death and A Serpent's Tale).

An Excellent Sequel,
By
This review is from: Grave Goods (Hardcover)
3rd novel in the series "A Mistress in the Art of Death"This historical based mystery is an exciting sequel. Anyone who is a fan of Adelia Aguilar and her forensic skills will not be disappointed. In 1176, a fire caused damage to Glastonbury Abbey and during the subsequent clean up an ancient box was found with the remains of two people. As in the past, King Henry 11 summoned Adelia to determine without a doubt the skeletons uncovered where those of King Arthur and Queen Guinevere. Adelia and her forensic team embark on a mission to reveal their true identities. The author has given us a tale of crime, forensics details and romance mixed with an ingenious blend of medieval history during the rule of King Henry11.This clever story progresses with snappy dialogue at a fast-pace making it very hard to put down. A fascinating cast of strong characters provide growth to tantalize our imagination and pique our interest. New facets are revealed in the relationship between Adelia and St-Alban while the adventure runs a gamut of difficulties. Judging by the ending of this novel, I suspect Henry will ask Adelia to use her expertise and solve more of the period's mysteries
