Synopsis: A shady pottery collector is murdered in sunny New Mexico in this mystery in a &“winning series&” (Susan Wittig Albert). Maybe it was the chance to make an easy $2,500. Or maybe it was the opportunity to examine a treasure trove of Anasazi pots—or maybe it was just a slow day at the antiques shop that convinced Hubie Schuze to agree to a strange proposition. A reclusive collector wants a confidential appraisal, with one catch: Hubie must be blindfolded and driven to an unknown location by a chauffeur. Sure, it&’s an odd setup, but what could possibly go wrong? Hubie&’s nonchalance fades fast when he finds three replicas among the genuine antiquities. Worse, after returning home, he can&’t seem to find the $2,500 cash that the collector gave him. Incensed at the rip-off, Hubie is determined to recoup the money, but Detective Whit Fletcher interrupts his scheme, dragging him instead to the morgue to identify a John Doe. When the sheet is pulled back, Hubie is shocked to see the body of the unknown art collector. Hubie is not a suspect—yet. But the longer he pursues this mystery, the more tangled he will become in the dead man&’s shadowy life. The Pot Thief Who Studied Einstein is the 3th book in the Pot Thief Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
