In Speaking From Among the Bones by Alan Bradley, Flavia is excited about the soon to be exhumed bones of a local saint at the churchyard. Before even reaching the chamber, the workman find the much more recently deceased body of the church's organist. Exploring the cemetery outside, Flavia discovers a tunnel that leads to the room containing the body as well as the tomb. Her curiosity becomes fully peaked when she learns that the saint was buried with a staff containing a large diamond. With her usual precocious attitude, she determines to solve the crime and find the diamond.
Another entertaining addition to the series. 4 stars.
