This is simply a must read for the mystery buffs :) It is too good.
It involves a mystery where in a dead person's body ends up in an ancient sarcophagus just before it's shipped out of the country. This story involves the Metropolitan Museum, the Museum of Natural History, and the Cloisters.
A very good explanation of the musuem processes to acquire an item and how all items are identified and labelled is given in this book. We learn about burial customs about some tribe ( Don't recollect which one). The persons who investigate this crime are Alexandra Cooper, Mike Chapman and Mercer Wallace.
All in all, it's a good book to read :) I understood a lot about museums and different aspects of things stored in a museum through reading this book
