From Publishers Weekly In Albert's assured 14th outing for China Bayles (after 2004's A Dilly of a Death ), the herbalist and ex-lawyer is worried about the effect of the poor tourist trade on her Pecan Springs, Tex., herb shop, tea room and New Age store owned jointly with her best friend, Ruby Wilcox, when her 14-year-old stepson, Brian, announces a disturbing discovery: while on an archeological dig in a cave, he found a skeleton with its skull bashed in. Analysis later shows that the bones are about 30 years old. After a leading citizen shoots dead an apparent intruder in self-defense, China begins to suspect there's a link between this incident and the past murder.

Fascinating information about herbs and tempting recipes round out this leisurely cozy with a Southwestern flair. (Apr. 5) Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
