The Search for My Great-Uncle's Head is a mystery by Jonathan Latimer, written under the pen name Peter Coffin."When Peter Coffin's mysterious great-uncle Tobias summons the family to his manor in the wilds of Michigan, his aunt warns him to stay away." Wading through the estate's muck at midnight, Peter crosses paths with a singing, escaped lunatic who recently decapitated his own family. Upon reaching the house, Peter is greeted by hostile cousins bearing shotguns, who initially mistake the mud-covered professor for the madman. Shortly after his arrival, his wealthy and cruel great-uncle Tobias is murdered and decapitated in his study. In a classic twist of puzzle plotting, "both his head and his will go missing". While the local police assume the escaped ax-wielding maniac committed the crime, Peter suspects his own greedy, Coffin-named relatives. With the missing will dictating the family fortune, the hunt becomes a race to find both the killer and the patriarch's severed head before the family tears itself apart.
