Philip Wylie

Corpses at Indian Stones Philip Wylie

Philip Wylie was one of the most innovative, influential and controversial authors of his time. Following the instincts of his lively mind he covered the gamut: mystery, science fiction, sports and leisure, ecology, travel, philosophy, politics and mainstream fiction. As a screenwriter he contributed to a score of films, including The Invisible Man and The Island of Lost Souls (The Island of Dr. Moreau). In CORPSES AT INDIAN STONES Wylie turns his considerable talent and imagination to the Golden Age Mystery. Set in an exclusive resort area of upstate new York, this fun and endearing novel sparkles like the sun on a summer lake - a lake with mystery and murder at its dark depths. The novel's amateur sleuth, Professor Agamemnon Telemachus Plum (Aggie for short), at first dreading a summer of fun far away from his archaeological digs, soon finds that a mystery unfolding before his eyes is every bit as intriguing as one that's been buried in a tomb for centuries.
