A Perfect Death: A Wesley Peterson Murder Mystery (The Wesley Peterson Murder Mysteries)

A 13th-century legend could provide DI Peterson clues to a local murder in tale number 14 in the series When a woman is burned to death in Grandal Field in Devon, it seems like a case of mistaken identity. Until DI Wesley Peterson learns of a legend involving a French woman who burned to death there in the 13th century. When he discovers that records of a previous excavation on the site have vanished and that two archaeologists involved in that dig died in tragic circumstances, Wesley starts to investigate the possibility of a link between the legend and recent events. But edging closer to the truth brings unexpected danger to Wesley, for the truth echoes a story of twisted love and obsession from many centuries ago—a truth that someone wants to keep hidden, whatever the cost.
