A Treasure Hunt Turned Deadly: Josie Prescott's Latest Antiques Mystery
For antiques dealer Josie Prescott, an abandoned storage unit is the perfect place to find some killer treasure, but discovering a dead body amongst the wares is more than she bargained for.
With Valentine's Day a week away and the sun sparkling on the fresh-fallen snow in Rocky Point, New Hampshire, it is the ideal day for Josie to pursue her newest source of unexpected treasures—the contents of abandoned storage units sold at auction. A crowd gathers at the facility, including Henri Dubois, the owner of a local interior design store, who bids against a newcomer to the local auction scene. Josie is thrilled with her win, a small unit filled with stunning Depression-era glassware and vintage jewelry. Henri's unit includes hand-painted silent movie posters, which he eagerly hands over to Josie for appraisal.
The next morning, Josie receives a frantic call from Henri's wife—he never made it home. When the police open Henri's storage unit, they find him dead amidst a jumble of objects. Was he killed over one of the items? Is his wife hiding secrets that led to his death? And who was the stranger who bid against Henri? The police turn to Josie's antiques expertise, and she uncovers more than provenance—she uncovers a murderer.
Jane K. Cleland's Lethal Treasure is a page-turning addition to her beloved Josie Prescott mystery series, with the fascinating antiques details and devilishly clever mystery plot that fans adore and newcomers will love.
