Eloise, owner of an antiquarian bookshop is on a mission. A recent discovery amongst her mothers effects convinces Eloise, that her mother imprisoned till her death and convicted of her fathers murder, is actually innocent. She seeks the help of two people who could help - a retired librarian and a collector.
Whilst the investigation is in progress and because the case is so old and closed, Eloise looks for the detective who was originally in charge of the case. When he is found murdered in Eloise’s own bookshop, detectives start looking at Eloise as their chief suspect.
How to speed up the investigation and link the clues leading to the conviction of the murderer is Eloise’s aim along with the very reclusive Cam and more intrepid Jane.
Surprising end and leading to the next book (I hope).
