As taken from the author website (www.prestonchild.com):

Just days before a massive exhibition opens at the popular New York Museum of Natural History, visitors are being savagely murdered in the museum's dark hallways and secret rooms. Autopsies indicate that the killer cannot be human...

But the museum's directors plan to go ahead with a big bash to celebrate the new exhibition, in spite of the murders.

Museum researcher Margo Green must find out who--or what--is doing the killing. But can she do it in time to stop the massacre

Review of 'Relic' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

First off, I read the audio book after seeing a friend's review. Do not like many of the New York voices of the reader, so I will seek out a different way to read subsequent books. Second, it seems the authors planned for a sequel, but not necessarily a series. Either that or they just like a quirky ending. Finally, the book. I liked the science and the nearly 20 year old computer descriptions, plus the hubris of the museum characters. I'm not sure there was quite enough put into the politics there, or maybe I just missed some subtle hints. Unlike my friend, I have not seen the movie, so will seek that out soon.
