Priceless Egyptian artifacts were stolen from the history department safe. Wrenn’s longtime love, Eastwood professor Gideon Douglas, heads the department. Only recovery of the artifacts will save his career.
He wishes Wrenn would stop searching down clues ahead of the police and pacify temperamental playwright Barton Reed. Barton’s play is just days away from opening in the town’s historic Baxter Theater.
But it’s her stubborn one-woman approach that places her directly in the killer’s path.
Fans of Susan Breen, Edie Claire and Janet Evanovich will love Connie Chappell's gripping murder mystery.
