Can a female amateur sleuth and the small-town detective peel back the lies before they find another body? Or is he part of the problem?
Gemma and her police detective boyfriend are on the Carolina coast for a vacation and a bit of work. But she is soon pulled into the mystery of the death of a museum docent, disappearing artifacts and a sketchy museum director.
Things take a turn for the worse when she begins to suspect that her boyfriend may abandon his career altogether as he reconnects with dodgy old friends. With money on his mind, will he ditch everything-including their relationship-to get a better life for himself?
Follow her as she tries to distinguish friend from foe in the ever-complicating terrain. And finds herself in the middle of a drug deal.
