Publisher's summary

USA TODAY BESTSELLER

In this fun, cozy, debut mystery, an antiques hunter investigates a suspicious death at an isolated English manor, embroiling her in the high-stakes world of tracking stolen artifacts.

What antique would you kill for?

Freya Lockwood is shocked when she learns that Arthur Crockleford, antiques dealer and her estranged mentor, has died under mysterious circumstances. She has spent the last twenty years avoiding her quaint English hometown, but when she receives a letter from Arthur asking her to investigate—sent just days before his death—Freya has no choice but to return to a life she had sworn to leave behind.

Joining forces with her eccentric Aunt Carole, Freya follows clues to an old manor house for an advertised antiques enthusiast’s weekend. But not all is as it seems. It’s clear to Freya that the antiques are all just poor reproductions, and her fellow guests are secretive and menacing. What is going on at this estate and how was Arthur involved? More importantly, can Freya and Carole discover the truth before the killer strikes again?

Just a great suspense novel that moves along and entertains.

Good characters, entertaining, got me through a night when I was sick and couldn’t sleep, but helped the night to scoot on by. Subject matter was very interesting also, just what I needed.

One of best played and written Cozy Mysteries

Absolutely loved every minute of this book and I rather enjoyed the narrating. This is exactly what I am looking for when I want to listen to a cozy mystery. Thank you!

Antique and mystery

I love old objects, antique shops and mysteries set in manors in the countryside. This book was kinda really up my alley. I immediately had to google wally bird, and now I am in love with them.

There were times I felt the writing was a little erratic, but I found the story captivating enough to ignore certain details, and the narration was excellent, even if the US accents proved to be a bit challenging. Overall, this was an enjoyable read, and I look forward to reading the next novel when it comes out.

I am ready for more!

This was such a delightful cozy mystery, with very loveable characters, well placed comedy, and an intriguing plot that keeps you guessing. It isn't overly complicated, just an easygoing listen, and the subject matter is unique. I was definitely pulled into the story and did not want to leave, and by the last quarter I was dreading that there wouldn't be more of Freya and Carol (and Phil) right away. The interview at the end of this version, done with the author and narrator, is also delightful, and reveals that there is already a second book in the works, and is nearly finished. I will be anxiously waiting for Emilia Fox to finish narrating the sequel, and Audible to make it available.

Good dialogue

Liked the multi generational protagonists, and the antiques as a theme. Hoping future books will feature European antiques.

Fantastic story, wonderful cast of characters! This is such a fun and adventurous novel. Although some spots are predictable it was great. As a lover of murder mystery novels this really kept my interest. This is the first novel from this author and I am excited to watch her grow this series!!

Very fun mystery

I really enjoyed the story. It had sort of an Indiana Jones/ Laura Croft feel. I’ll definitely check out the next books!
