| Summary: | "Following a not-exactly-restful trip to a Yorkshire spa, aspiring writer Aggie Morton and her sleuthing chum, Hector Perot, are excited to stay in a seaside camp near Lyme Regis to watch real paleontologists at work. The husband-and-wife fossil hunters are poised for fame with the discovery of the prehistoric skeleton of an ichthyosaur. The news has caught the attention of a wealthy American collector, a British museum, and a traveling circus owner, all of whom want the bones for themselves! As greed sends tempers flaring, no one at Camp Crewe is left unscathed, from the cook and staff to the scientists themselves. Then, Aggie and Hector discover a body on the beach. A human body."-- |
