Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Forensic anthropologist Lindsay Chamberlain faces some very stiff challenges in her third appearance (Questionable Remains, 1997). She consults on the case of Shirley Foster, an art teacher at the University of Georgia in Athens, who has been missing for four years, and very quickly guides the authorities to a grave site on the Foster family's property. After Lindsay helps identify the remains as Foster's, she believes her part in the case is over, but events prove otherwise. In the meantime, her brother Sinjin appears for a visit, bringing some crates that had been stored on their archeologist grandfather's property. Filled with Native American artifacts of mysterious provenance, the crates also yield a skeleton wearing a shirt and tie. Could Lindsay's grandfather have been involved in both artifact smuggling and murder? When the artifacts disappear, the puzzle deepens. In Connor's latest multifaceted tale, the plot is serpentine, the solution ingenious, the academic politics vicious, and Lindsay is appealing. Although the dialogue occasionally is stilted and transitions are sometimes abrupt, this entertaining mystery is as chock-full of engrossing anthropological and archeological detail as a newly discovered burial mound.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best!!!, September 18, 2001
By Elizabeth (Georgia) - See all my reviews
Beverly Connor is a jewel of an author who has yet to be discovered by the masses. But she will be. No mystery writer this good can go long without topping the bestseller list. In this installment of her Lindsay Chamberlain series, Beverly does it again with clever twists and turns and sharp writing. She's a smart writer for an intelligent reader. I never read a Connor book without learning something and, quite frankly, that's the kind of fiction I like to read. Buy this book and I promise you won't be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars thrilling suspense, March 29, 2005
By Elizabeth Slater (Jacksonville Beach, FL) - See all my reviews
  
3rd in the Lindsay Chamberlain series, the story begins with Lindsay sniffing through a field looking for a missing art teacher from the university where Lindsay works. Finding the woman is one of Lindsay's few pieces of luck, though, as various household expenses keep adding stress to her finances. On top of that, she's worried about the possible upcoming merger of departments at the university; as a non-tenured faculty member, she could be job hunting soon. In the midst of all this, Lindsay's brother shows up unexpectedly with a truck load of her grandfather's leftover property - crates from a shed in his backyard, a shed of which no one was aware. If Lindsay didn't have enough on her plate, they find a skeleton in one of the crates, and then artifacts are discovered to be missing...and Lindsay seems to be the main suspect.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another triumph for Lindsay, October 10, 2000
Lindsay Chamberlain never invites danger into her life; it just happens upon her frequently like an unwanted guest. In this tale Lindsay is in danger...this time of losing her job at the University of Georgia's Archaeology Department due to a merger with another department. If that were not enough to worry her, a cache of priceless artifacts delivered to her by her father is stolen, and all eyes are on Lindsay. Lindsay also becomes involved in the murder case of a long-missing UGA professor whose skeleton is recently found? Friends and strangers linked to Lindsay are either injured or killed trying to help, and Lindsay must put together all of the strewn puzzle pieces before she is next on the hit list.

I have enjoyed Beverly Connor's series for many years; Lindsay Chamberlain is one of the most original and dynamic sleuths to have been created in recent years, and Dressed to Die is well worth the cover price.
