Read A Review:

Josie Prescott hired Gretchen to be the assistant at Prescott's Antiques and Appraisals some time ago.  When Gretchen doesn't show up for work one day, Josie becomes concerned.  When a dead man is found in Gretchen's house, Gretchen becomes the prime suspect.

Josie is certain Gretchen isn't a killer.  But as she begins to investigate, she realizes she doesn't know much about Gretchen and even less about Gretchen's past.  She is more determined than ever to find Gretchen and help prove her innocence.  Some of the information she turns up does make her begin to question where Gretchen could really be the killer.

I love the characters and settings of these books.  Josie and all the people working with her are such a great group.  The plots are so well-written.  The characters are three-dimensional and I often forget this is fiction.

I am not a big fan of antiques, but I learn a lot from each book in this series.  And I love the New Hampshire setting.  While Josie often gets herself into some jams, she is a very smart woman and always finds a way to get out of these tight spots.

I highly recommend this series and book.
