An anonymous locket. A hidden map. A discovery far stranger than the treasure itself.
A velvet box appears on Magda Lane’s counter overnight, with no sender, no slip, and no explanation.
Inside lies a Victorian locket etched with lines and angles, a map to a long-buried crime.
Antique dealer Magda Lane lives for hidden finds, but trouble insists on joining her collection.
When the locket goes on display at Maplewood Hollow’s historic Playhouse, a near theft turns curiosity into pursuit.
Ronan Vale, a polished New York appraiser nursing an old professional slight, sees both opportunity and revenge.
Jasper Reed, the Playhouse’s new director, knows more than a newcomer should.
Ivy Marsh, Magda’s loyal best friend turned reluctant partner, does not quite trust him.
Following the locket’s trail, Magda unravels a secret that was never meant to be found.
Each clue reveals a deeper design of treasure, theft, and deceit.
Decades of generosity may have hidden more than donors gave, and Magda is running out of time before the locket’s secret disappears for good.
Genre: Mystery
