THE BLUE CORN MURDERS

This is the first new adventure of Eugenia Potter since the death of her creator (Virginia Rich). She finds her vacation at an archaeological camp takes a strange turn as first one, and then a second, woman is murdered. Are the murders tied to the ancient peoples who once inhabited this area? Agnes Herrmann finds distinctive voices for the range of characters, although a few of the women's voices sound like caricatures. The pace is steady as Herrmann keeps the plot moving forward in a story with more hidden agendas than intrigue. J.E.M. © AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: OCT/NOV 99]
