Grave Consequences (2002) - Plot & Excerpts

There was a fairly interesting mystery in here, and a couple of truly well depicted scenes of well-dramatized emotion - one expressed, the other nearly repressed. And some morals worth considering. But in spite of the author's gift for seeing stories that her archaeology profession must have inspired, she has also taken a less interesting quality from her discipline -- wordiness. She explains things endlessly in extreme detail. But this is narrative writing, and it slowed ideas or descriptions and even weakened them. I often lost the emotional or dramatic train, and so lost interest. Though I did finish. I also had trouble with why our heroine considers some pretty awful people to be dear friends. Still, Ms Cameron can write - if only she'd write a little less her stories would sing a lot more.

boring nancy drew mystery about an archeologist who interferes in a murder investigation and where the murderer turns out to be a character (the mother of the victim) introduced at the end of the book. awful read.

What do You think about Grave Consequences (2002)?

Emma Fielding, an archeologist is working in England at a 12th century abbey. Things are going along quite well, until, of course when a very modern skeleton is unearthed in medieval abbey graveyard. Then comes the discovery of the murder of a graduate student who also was working this dig. Abbey just wonders how her own friends, her hosts for the summer, figure into this mystery, I like mysteries set in the medieval period and I also like archeological mysteries and if you, also, then you'll want to read this one. Dana Cameron writes well and her story line is a good one.
