Book excerpt: "I still hadn't figured out any motive for harming Marion. She must have known or done something that the attacker found threatening, probably without realizing it. In fact, it was the classic gothic novel situation: Marion knew something, but didn't know she knew it. Rather like me; I had the feeling of some vital piece of knowledge locked in my subconscious, just out of reach. " Disappearing artifacts, jealous colleagues, and dead bodies--who says a museum curator's job is easy? After transporting a newly acquired Egyptian mummy to a local clinic for an X-ray, curator Lisa Donahue safely returns the ancient relic to the Boston University Museum of Archaeology and History. Upon returning to the museum after hours, the widowed young mother is shocked to discover the bloodied body of a colleague in the mummy's vacated case. The two-thousand-year-old mummy contains an enigmatic clue that will help Lisa solve the murder and keep her job. But she must move fast--before someone turns her into a permanent exhibit. "Highly authentic, written by an archaeologist, "Bound for Eternity" is a great read. The museum setting was both eerie and fascinating. I hope to see Lisa Donahue in many books to come."--Barbara D'Amato
