About this ebook
A bookstore owner and her husband hunt for hidden treasure—and a killer: “This tight, Agatha Christie–style puzzler will keep readers guessing to the end.” —Publishers Weekly
In this “scintillating” mystery by the New York Times–bestselling Agatha Award winner (Publishers Weekly), a frightened caller asks for help and says that she’s hidden something in the South Carolina antebellum house that Max and Annie Darling are restoring. Annie hurries to the woman’s home—only to discover she’s been murdered.
Evidence links the dead woman to a fortune in gold coins that has recently gone missing. When the victim’s son is accused, Max and Annie plunge wholeheartedly into the case. Are the coins hidden in Annie and Max’s house? The intruder who shoots at Max seems to think so. And when Annie discovers the secret of their old house, death arrives at their door . . .
“The reigning monarch of the amateur sleuth mystery.” —Cleveland Plain Dealer
“Absorbing.” —Kirkus Reviews
