Raven and the Little Buddha

Jessa Farrell inherits an unusual mud figure of the smiling Buddha from her father. Researching its past, she emails a photo of it to her friend Johnnie, who works at a Chicago art museum. Strange events conspire to make Jessa feel that she is being watched. When Johnnie does not return her phone calls, Jessa engages the services of Gainesville, Florida private investigator, John T. Raven. To uncover the statues history, they go underground when the body of a missing art historian appears on Jessas lawn. In a race against time, they pursue the cold trail of a thirty year old mystery. As the little Buddhas past is unraveled, a surprising connection between detective and client emerges.
