THE DARK PLACE Only a small pile of bones remains from a hiker who recently vanished in the Olympic Peninsula's dense, remote, primeval rainforest--just enough for Gideon Oliver to deduce that someone, or something, of superhuman strength had killed him . . . with a bone spear point! And now a young woman has disappeared as well. What's out there? "A thundering adventure, to be savored for Elkins' insouciant wit, the thrill of the chase and, not least the love affair between Gideon and Julie" --Publishers Weekly |

MURDER IN THE QUEEN'S ARMES "But why would anyone steal a thirty-thousand-year-old parieto-occipital calvareal fragment?" asks the distraught curator of the Dorchester Museum of Archaeology, staring at the empty case. "Beats the hell out of me," is Gideon's reply, but it doesn't take long for him to roll up his sleeves and get to work ferreting out the startling and murderous--answer. "A breathtakingly well-worked mystery." --Booklist |

OLD BONES "With the roar of thunder," goes the old Breton nursery song, "and the speed of a galloping horse, comes the tide to Mt. St. Michel." Family secrets, murders, and old Nazis in Normandy. This Gideon Oliver novel won the 1988 Edgar for Best Novel of the Year. "The action gallops along as fast and compelling as the tide itself."-- Publishers Weekly |
