In the fifth R&P Labs Mystery, a bachelor party camping trip takes an unexpected turn when the participants discover they are sharing their campsite with a skeleton -- a biologist who was murdered three decades earlier.

As the R&P staff -- Rob, Phil, Ellis, Virginia and Mitch -- are drawn into the ensuing homicide investigation, witness after witness disappears, reputations are smeared and they begin to wonder if some things would have been better left buried.
