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?©2024 C.L. Miller (P)2024 Simon & Schuster Audio

Great tale and narration!

You will love it. Can’t wait for the movie and the next adventure. This was such a wonderful murder mystery.

Phenomenal

Highly recommend for smart story, characters, and narrator. Beautiful language, evoking every location in each scene. Emilia Fix is always a favorite.

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.

Amazingly good. Especially for a debut novel.

Very interesting subject and mixed with a few murders and loving aunt. Will look forward to more.

A great listen!

Loved it! Great characters, a good story, and a very enjoyable listen. Highly recommend!! I’m looking forward to the next episode—I’ll definitely purchase! My only minor notes are that it was a bit hard to follow at times (but I was listening, not reading, so that may not have been a problem if I could go back and reread), and I didn’t love the voice actor’s portrayal of Phillip. The Southern American accent wasn’t doing it for me. (Aunt Carol was AMAZING, however!) Again—minor issue! Overall, I really enjoyed it.

Good dialogue

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

10 out of 10

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!

An assortment of interesting characters!

In addition to characters that have so many hidden stories, the antiques and antiquities also had such strong stories of their own! The narration was pleasant to listen to, and the dialogue in the story kept my attention. I do recommend this book 📚 🌟

Thoroughly enjoyed

Characters are likable and you will find yourself rooting for them during the book. Looking forward to the next.
