Title: Digging Up History (A Museum Mystery Book 8) Pdf
When a summer intern at the Preservation Society discovers an aged document hidden in the binding of an antique book, Society president Nell Pratt is intrigued by the possibilities: is it a valuable historic document or just a useless scrap of paper? When analysis reveals that it’s a hand-drawn map of one of Philadelphia’s oldest neighborhoods, Nell learns that the area is being excavated for a new real estate development and may hold long-buried secrets from the city’s historic heyday.
Determined to get to the bottom of the map’s origin and what it might tell her about the mysterious plot of land, Nell will have to contend with a construction company owner who disappears, a former Society board member who’s harbored a dark secret her entire life, and a remarkable discovery that may have the dead turning over in their graves . . .

Interesting history While not a true mystery, the book has a lot of history and a puzzle to solve. This is my first book by the author's. She's written many. I'm sorry I started with this one as I wanted a real mystery novel. This was also somewhat wordy and repetitious. However, it had enough interest that I will probably try another book of the author's. If you're looking for a mystery, try another of her books.Digging Up History Book 8,in Sheila Connolly's,Museum Mystery,is a winner.I found it hard to put down.The story centers around a uncovered Philadelphia lost cemetery.Nell's friend,Marty remembers playing in the tunnels under the houses in that neighborhood. She and her cousins,found a body but took an oath never to tell anyone about it.And From there ,Nell and company research the cemetery and what Marty saw all those years ago.Well written. Great story.Bones and Cannons have been a fan of Sheila Connolly since I read her first Orchard book in paperback. Since my eyesight is such that I cannot even read the large printed books. I still have the first six paperbacks so I know it longer than5 years. I have like history all my life. I would have major in it except I there was nothing but teaching to do with a history major. It is no wonder I enjoy learning about the early Americans and Victoria England. The museum stories have been a must read books. I don't know how I missed this the eighth book in the Museum series we find Nell Pratt looking at a document that her summer intern, Dylan brought to her. It a collection of books from a member of the Founding Fathers, Harriet Featherstone. Dylan found it in the binding of a book. Unable to read the document she asks James, her FBI friend if he could enhance it. He was successful and it turned out to be a map of early Philadelphia. Checking out the address Nell and friends find a field of bones. Just outside the field of bones they find another skeleton in the basement of a house.The group work with the police to remove the bones. With the removal of the bones under the house a second skeleton is found and over 20 GOLDEN CANYONS. Where did they come from? Why a field full of disjointed bones?
