Buried Stuff (Jane Wheel Mysteries, No. 4)
Jane Wheel is trying to survive a disastrous garage sale designed to rid her house of the less desirable items she has gathered as an antiques picker. Fortunately, a call from her parents ends the sale, and Jane and her family head to Kankakee, Illinois, to help an old family friend, Fuzzy Neilson, who has discovered what appear to be human remains on his property. Jane's husband, Charley, is a geologist, and Fuzzy wants his help dealing with various government officials who have descended on the farm. The murder of an investigative reporter follows the discovery of the remains, and Jane attempts to determine why he was killed. While investigating the murder, she also helps a friend plan the world's largest garage sale, which is intended to help revitalize Kankakee. Quirky characters, intriguing family relationships, antique lore, and the history of Kankakee are all entwined in this entertaining mystery, the fourth in a series.Sue O'BrienCopyright © American Library Association.
