Eggie Morton, Queen of Riddles. The Sinister Secret of the Coast

After the events at the "Wellspring" spa, described in the book "Death in the Garden", young investigator Eggie Morton and her friend Hector Pero received an invitation to join a paleontological expedition, to live in a tent camp on the... coast and observe the work of real scientists. The names of the esteemed paleontologists, the Blenningham-Crews, are about to resonate around the world, as they prepare to raise the fossil remains of an ichthyosaur from the seabed near Lyme Regis. This news has already caught the attention of an American millionaire, the British Museum, and the owner of a traveling circus - all of whom want to acquire the dinosaur for their collection. Tension is felt throughout the camp, from the cook to the team members and the Blenningham-Crews themselves. The situation takes a dangerous turn when instead of fossils, Eggie and Hector find a dead body on the shore. The book "The Sinister Secret of the Coast" concludes the adventure story of the "Queen of Riddles" Eggie Morton, created by contemporary Canadian author Martha Jocelyn, inspired by the childhood of Agatha Christie and the character of Hercule Poirot, the most popular figure in her works.
