Summary |
London, 1703. Sir Barnaby Mayne, the most formidable of scientific collectors, has devoted his life to filling his cabinets. While the curious-minded vie for invitations to study the rare stones, bones, books, and artifacts he has amassed, for Cecily Kay, it is a passion for plants. The only puzzle she expects to encounter is how to locate the specimens she needs. But when her host is stabbed to death, Cecily finds the confession of the supposed killer unconvincing. She pays attention to details, and in the case of Sir Barnaby's murder, there are too many inconsistencies for her to ignore. To discover the truth, Cecily must enter the world of the collectors, a realm where intellect is distorted by obsession and greed. As her pursuit of answers brings her closer to a killer, she risks being given a final resting place amid the bones that wait, silent and still, in the cabinets of Barnaby Mayne. |
