Publisher's summary

So many interesting aspects to snag the reader’s attention.” –The New York News Journal

Foundling Museum archivist Wrenn Grayson is called on to resolve two conspiracies.

The call from the first is closer to a fading whisper since it steps out of 1879. It revolves around a small temple-like structure, known as a folly, and Thomas Longstretch, the stained-glass artisan hired to design the folly’s windows. Longstretch’s extended stay on the Summoner Park estate coincides with the disappearance of a murderously sharp and ancient dagger.

Wrenn answers a second call from Yannick Devers, real estate developer. She and security consultant Bret Kilmore are asked to investigate an unconscionable act, but a much more fragrant one. This conspiracy grew from a battle over possession of lavender fields.

Both conspiracies present intriguing complexities and elusive clues. While years have passed on the first, time is painfully tightening down on the second. Lives are at stake.

Fans of Sue Grafton, Anthony Horowitz, J.A. Jance, and Louise Penny will love this gripping mystery by Connie Chappell.
