Honor the Dead

Dr. Cate Spencer is back in this highly-anticipated third installment of the Dominion Archives Mysteries.

It’s been a few months since the events of Speak for the Dead and Dr. Cate Spencer is seeking a temporary reprieve in the bucolic Eastern Townships of Quebec where she can come to terms with her brother’s death, find inner peace, build new relationships, and await a decision about her future. But when a man at a neighboring farm is shot through the eye with deadly accuracy, a metal detector lying next to him, Cate can’t help but investigate. 

As she delves deeper into the mystery, Cate uncovers a world of drugs, lies, and violence hidden beneath the picturesque town, all of which threaten the tenuous peace she’s built for herself.  As long-buried secrets and a centuries-old mystery become exposed, what will Cate lose to find the answers she seeks? 

A gripping new mystery, Honor the Dead is a must-read for new and old Dominion Archives fans alike!

“Picking up from her previous book, Speak For The Dead, coroner Cate Spencer is still reeling from her brother’s mysterious death. She is suspended from work, now having to pass the time as a country doctor in Quebec’s Eastern Townships, an idyllic country setting masterfully obscuring many secrets and a sordid history. “
— Wayne Ng, author of the Family Code
“Honor the Dead is classic Amy Tector—-an intriguing mystery peppered with fascinating historical tidbits and infused with a good dose of humor. Her cast of characters never disappoints and everyone is a suspect until the very last page. This book is too fun to put down. Don’t be surprised if you finish it in one sitting.”
— Kim Hooper, author of Ways the World Could End
