An important finding in the basement of the Crispin Museum sets in motion the complicated machine that combines print, scholars and law enforcement. This is a mummy, Madame X, for carbon-14, is traced back to two thousand years ago, but, under the scanner of the tac inside reveals a disturbing surprise: a bullet. Taking a closer examination showed that the bullet is stuck in the bone at the calf and is covered with callus. That is to say that the bullet has lodged in his leg (now) when the victim was still alive ... but how is it possible?
Detective Jane Rizzoli and his collaborator Frost, investigate to solve the yellow. Meanwhile, other macabre souvenirs are found inside the museum.
It seems therefore that there is a serial killer who leaves his "artifacts" in order to intimidate someone.
But who are the women found the form of mummies, tsantse or other? How many years ago have disappeared?
will be for the police to get the truth.
I must admit I expected a much more compelling and engaging novel, given the positive comments I had read.
I considered the character of the medical examiner, Maura, rather irrelevant, as the murky history with its "impossible" lover.
Detective Frost there is even a very good figure, if not the end, while Jane Rizzoli is the only one who seems to understand something about the intricate story.
The reading is smooth and pleasant, but lacks pathos and action is reduced to a few final pages.
I do not know, I was not particularly excited, but not recommended because different techniques are in-depth about the mummification and the preservation of bodies that resulting interest to the layman.
