The Keepsake

A novel by Tess Gerritsen. I've read most of her novels and they're full of suspense. There's a medical examiner, a female detective and a male detective. The serial killer in this one turns his victims into mummies, "bog bodies", and even did a shrunken head. Someone with an archaeological background was definitely involved. The next victim is a young archaeologist that is working at a remote Boston museum and living a secret life. Her Mother is the true target but she's hidden away for most of her life to keep she and her daughter safe from the lunatic stalker/serial killer. It was a fast read and good page turner. Along the lines of Kathy Reich and early Patricia Cornwell.

Have a few days off the new job. One day of work on Thursday and then off for the weekend since it's hubby's class reunion weekend. Really have gear up for this event. Briefly met a few of the classmates 10 years ago but haven't seen any since then and this time they've invited two other classes to join them. Sure hope there's name tags! Also glad that we're only going to for the one night instead of the three day event they scheduled. Have the reunions more often and for one evening instead of every 10 years and a weekend long event.

Watch out up there. I hear Shenendoah is a little violent these days. Unlike B'more.
