SHARYN McCRUMB

HIGHLAND LADDIE GONE

Elizabeth MacPherson is having a rollicking good time at an annual Scottish festival when the loathed Colin Campbell is found murdered. Then a second murder silences everyone's bagpipes for good. Enter Elizabeth, who will use her insatiable curiosity to find the killer and let justice prevail.

LOVELY IN HER BONES

When the leader of her archaeological dig is murdered, forensic anthropologist Elizabeth MacPherson finds herself on the case. It takes a second mysterious death to start a cauldron of ideas bubbling in her head. And when she mixes a little modern know-how with some old-fashioned suspicions, Elizabeth comes up with a batch of answers that surprises even the experts.

MISSING SUSAN

The unsinkable Elizabeth MacPherson is on a tour of England's most famous murder sites with the cantankerous Rowan Rover, the tour guide who has been paid to murder an unsuspecting woman. No would-be assassin needs Elizabeth on his tail. And she will be there until the end of the tour or the completion of Rowan's mission, whichever comes first.

PAYING THE PIPER

Elizabeth MacPherson is on an archaeological dig on a remote Scottish isle when several members of the team die under mysterious circumstances. Is the excavation cursed by the ancient dead or is something or someone more modern responsible? With her own life on the line, Elizabeth is determined to unearth the answer.

THE WINDSOR KNOT

Elizabeth MacPherson has a rather hectic summer in front of her. Between finishing her doctoral thesis and planning her impending wedding, she must solve the case of a man who has died twice. And if she can accomplish all this, she might just get to have tea with Her Majesty the Queen!
