Urn Burial by Kerry Greenwood

From the author of the bestselling Phryne Fisher Series comes Urn Burial, the next historical mystery featuring the sultry, sharp-as-a-whip Miss Fisher. Can she find a way to clear up a muddied murder?

Another Down Under adventure that's definitely a cut above.--Booklist

The redoubtable Phryne Fisher is holidaying at Cave House, a Gothic mansion in the heart of Australia's Victorian mountain country. But the peaceful surroundings mask danger. Her host is receiving death threats, lethal traps are set without explanation, and the parlour maid is found strangled to death. What with the reappearance of mysterious funerary urns, a pair of young lovers, an extremely eccentric swagman, an angry outcast heir, and the luscious Lin Chung, Phryne's attention has definitely been caught. Stuck in the murder mansion, her search for answers takes her deep into the dungeons of the house and into the limestone Buchan caves. What will she find this time?
