The Crypt Thief: A Hugo Marston Novel

The Crypt Thief: A Hugo Marston Novel

Itâ€™s summer in Paris and two tourists have been murdered in PÃ¨re Lachaise cemetery in front of Jim Morrisonâ€™s grave. The cemetery is locked down and put under surveillance, but the killer returns, flitting in and out like a ghost, and breaks into the crypt of a long-dead Moulin Rouge dancer. In a bizarre twist, he disappears under the cover of night with part of her skeleton.

One of the dead tourists is an American and the other is a woman linked to a suspected terrorist; so the US ambassador sends his best man and the embassyâ€™s head of securityâ€”Hugo Marstonâ€”to help the French police with their investigation.

When the thief breaks into another crypt at a different cemetery, stealing bones from a second famed dancer, Hugo is stumped. How does this killer operate unseen? And why is he stealing the bones of once-famous can-can girls?

Hugo cracks the secrets of the graveyards but soon realizes that old bones arenâ€™t all this killer wants. . . .
