A mislaid corpse strikes terror in the hearts of Boston'€™s strangest family Like many old New England families, the Kellings live to die. Although their family vault is spacious and comfortable, for Sarah Kelling'€™s Great-Uncle Frederick it will not do. In his will, he demands to be buried inside the ancient family tomb at Boston Common, which hasn'€™t admitted a new member in over a century. But when the Kellings crack the old vault'€™s door, they find a recently built brick wall. And behind it lays a surprisingly fresh corpse'€”a skeleton with rubies in its teeth. Her name was Ruby Redd, and many years ago she was the toast of Boston'€™s burlesque scene. Her murder case is ice cold, but when Sarah begins investigating it, she finds that the burning passions behind this beauty'€™s death still burn white hot. With the help of art-fraud investigator Max Bittersohn, she will solve the stripper'€™s murder, or take her own place in the family vault.
