Interrupting the idyllic scene, amateur archaeologist Miss Dorothy Ruskin visits with a startling puzzle. Working in the Holy Land, she has unearthed a tattered roll of papyrus with a message from Mary Magdalene. Miss Ruskin wants Russell to safeguard the letter. But when Miss Ruskin is killed in a traffic accident, Russell and Holmes find themselves on the trail of a fiendishly clever murderer. Clearly there was more to Miss Ruskin than met the eye. But why was she murdered? Was it her involvement in the volatile politics of the Holy Land? Was it her championing of women's rights? Or was it the scroll--a deeply troubling letter that could prove to be a Biblical bombshell? In either case, Russell and Holmes soon find that solving her murder may be murder itself. 000466436 650_0 $$aHolmes, Sherlock$$vFiction. 000466436 650_0 $$aRussell, Mary (Fictitious character)$$vFiction. 000466436 651_0 $$aEngland$$vFiction. 000466436 655_7 $$aMystery fiction.$$2gsafd 000466436 85200 $$bgen$$hPS3561.I4813$$iL47$$i1998 000466436 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:466436$$pGLOBAL_SET 000466436 980__ $$aBIB 000466436 980__ $$aBOOK
