Freya, it’s up to you to finish what I started… Freya Lockwood has avoided the quaint English village where she grew up for the last twenty years. That is, until her eccentric Aunt Carole breaks the news that Arthur Crockleford, antiques dealer and Freya’s estranged mentor, has unexpectedly died. Then Freya receives a letter from Arthur, sent just days before his death, warning her that she is in danger. Suspecting he may have been murdered, she and Carole begin to investigate. When they discover Arthur’s journals and an invitation to an antiques enthusiasts’ weekend, Freya finds herself pulled back into a life she swore to leave behind. Once more Freya is on the hunt. Following the clues and her rusty antique hunting instincts, she and Carole attend the retreat at an old manor where all is not as it seems. The antiques are bad reproductions, and the other guests are menacing and secretive. Can Freya and Carole solve the mystery before the killer strikes again?

You will uncover an invitation, I implore you to attend . . .

Can Freya and Carole solve the mystery and unearth the killer before they strike again? *********** 'What a unique and very enjoyable take on the classic whodunnit!'

Even so, the pair decide to find out the truth. Their mission quickly leads them on a merry chase that not only winds it way to Ireland, but also includes a visit to the great Chicago Fire. The ladies are assisted by CC's niece Ingrid, CC's beau Nick and both of Anne's fellows--Nigel and John Blackbear. What they don't know is that Patricia Rounder's killer is still at large and now has his sights on them.
