This was the greatest book I've read lately!! I love Sheila Connolly's work and sad there won't be any more to this series. This one had me on edge the entire time starting with the skeleton in the wall. Full of mystery ,an old love affair and even a newer death that ties things all together.  Thank you Sheila for this great book.

Pre order this great book.
