A murdered archivist. A fifty-year conspiracy. And a wedding that might turn into a funeral.
Taylor's got FBI consultant on her resume, a ring on her finger, and a house she's buying with Detective Ryan Sterling. Life is finally, finally good.
Then university archivist Brenda Gillespie is murdered three days after finding evidence of a fifty-year forgery network. The corruption goes all the way to the top, and the killer has the institutional power to bury any investigation.
This shadowy mastermind has been certifying fakes, blackmailing collectors, and killing witnesses for decades. They've already eliminated Brenda and an FBI informant. Now, Taylor's forensic expertise makes her the next logical target.
Between planning her wedding, consulting for the Smithsonian, and trying not to die before she says I do, Taylor races to expose fifty years of institutional corruption. With Ryan, the FBI, and her best friend Ollie, she's got one shot to bring down a killer who's made murder look like heart attacks for half a century.
THE SERIES FINALE! For fans of Ellery Adams, Sara Rosett & cozy addicts who need: wedding chaos - FBI action - institutional corruption - archive mysteries - happily ever after GUARANTEED!
