When Jack comes across an ancient writing revealing something terrible happened long ago--something that can affect the present--Duncan and Sergeant Gemma James search for the truth. (June)<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Scotland Yard Detective Superintendent Duncan Kincaid and his partner Sergeant Gemma James return in another spellbinding novel of mysteries--one contemporary, one ancient--an investigation that will challenge them personally and professionally as no case ever has. From the award-winning author of the acclaimed <b>Kissed a Sad Goodbye</b>... <p/><b>A FINER END <p/></b>When Duncan Kincaid's cousin Jack calls from Glastonbury to ask for his help on a rather unusual matter, Duncan welcomes the chance to spend a relaxing weekend outside of London with Gemma--but relaxation isn't on the agenda. Glastonbury is revered as the site of an ancient abbey, the mythical burial place of King Arthur and Guinevere, and a source of strong druid power. Jack has no more than a passing interest in its history--until he comes across an extraordinary chronicle almost a thousand years old. The record reveals something terrible and bloody shattered the abbey's peace long ago--knowledge that will spark violence that reaches into the present. Soon it is up to Duncan and Gemma to find the truth the local police cannot see. But no one envisions the peril that lies ahead--or that there is more at stake than they ever dreamed possible.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"CROMBIE has laid claim to the literary territory of moody psychological suspense owned by P.
