Description

Format: Mass Market Paperback, 258pp.ISBN: 0312967039 Publisher: St. Martin's Press Pub. Date: March 1999 When the somewhat unfashionable physician Andrew Fenimore spots a teenage boy trying unsuccessfully to bury his beloved cat in Philadelphia's posh Society Hill, he befriends the lonely youth and leads him to what is rumored to be an ancient Indian burial ground of the Lenape Indians. The two stumble across a body while digging, but this is not what surprises them. The young woman who is buried there is sitting in an upright position and facing east, as is customary with the Lenape, but her death is obviously a very recent one. When the identity of the woman is discovered to be that of the fiancee of an old colleague's son, Fenimore quickly finds himself buried in the investigation to uncover the cause of the woman's untimely death.
