American Rex Bowman arrives in England's village of Oddington to tidy up ancient graves, but unearths treason, treasure and a one-thousand-year-old serial-murder plot. Oddington bridges the amateur sleuth whodunit and historical mystery genres. Though set in present day, Oddington reaches into English history toward fans of Bernard Cornwell, America's History Channel, and British television's Time Team series. Oddington is a fun murder-mystery full of surprises.
