A wartime compact. A murdered dealer. A woman history branded a traitor.
Antiques appraiser Susan Stewart discovers that the engraving on a 1940s silver compact is not decoration. It is a code tied to stolen objects in a prestigious museum collection.
Then the dealer who recognized its value is found dead.
The compact belonged to Margot Le Sueur, a Jersey hotel maid condemned as a collaborator after the German occupation. Susan's evidence suggests the truth may be very different, and museum board chair Graham Weller has powerful reasons to keep the past buried.
If Susan cannot prove what happened, a murdered man goes unanswered, stolen property stays hidden, and Margot's name remains disgraced forever.
Perfect for readers of Simone St. James, Kate Morton, and Rhys Bowen.
