About the Book: Death follows the art historian and antique dealer couple to Madison, Wisconsin, for their fifth murder mystery
Amateur sleuths Nora Barnes and Toby Sandler find themselves caught up in a labyrinth of speculation when they arrive at the University of Wisconsin–Madison for Nora’s faculty exchange. Campus police are baffled by the discovery of human remains in the attic of the university’s administration building. Nora connects the bones to the Vietnam-era bombing of Sterling Hall, but someone doesn’t want her probing the past. She’s side-swiped by a car while riding a bicycle and almost crushed in the art library’s motorized book stacks. Meanwhile, Toby is hot on the trail of lost architectural plans drafted by Frank Lloyd Wright.
Inspired by an event that traumatized Madison and shocked the nation, Draine and Hinden interweave fact and fiction to create an intricate novel sure to delight both mystery enthusiasts and UW alumni.
