Annie McMuffit must infuse her new business, Annies Attic, with a large amount of hard cash or abandon her long-time desire to own an antique shop. Joe Carter offers Annie a money-spinning job evaluating the contents of a ten-room Victorian house, his recent inheritance. Annie, a novice at appraising antiques but desperate for money, accepts the job. While Annie works and stays at the isolated, menacing Carter house, someone tries to frighten her away. She proves why her nickname is Granite-head and stays her course. After Annie reads a collection of diaries she finds in a secret compartment of an old armoire, the discovery leads heras a wannabe detectivein a new direction when she sets forth to solve an old murder.

About the author

LOIS M. GENTRY was born and reared in Peoria, Illinois. She now lives in Arizona and provides an exciting new voice to the mystery genre. Her characters come to life on the written page. Her love of storytelling began as a child but lay dormant for years. The thought, like a Lorelei, lured her to become a novelist. Lois’s earlier experience of owning an antique business informs the background for this story. THE EMPTY CHAIR is a second book by this author. Her first publication, GROWING UP A SHADOW, was a nonfiction account of her life.
