The house of the sky waited a century for its treasure to come home. Someone made sure it didn't.

Travel writer Nora Blake has twelve hundred words to write about Dar Ziani - a nineteenth-century merchant's house deep in the Marrakech medina, lovingly restored into a boutique riad, welcoming home the antique astrolabe its family lost a hundred years ago. Easy assignment. Gorgeous city. And Dimitri Alexiou - the consultant who keeps having excellent timing - has finally stopped inventing reasons to be there.

Then Hamid Serghini, the old antiques dealer who tracked the treasure through a century of collections, is found dead behind a locked door the week of the opening. A charcoal brazier, the coldest night of the month, a sealed room. The local police call it an accident. Case closed before lunch.

But Hamid never used charcoal. And there were two glasses of mint tea on his desk - and only one of them was drunk.

Between a shouting rival with a fifty-year-old key, a hostess with a payment she won't explain, a paper trail from Paris that reads a little too perfectly, and a city where every alley has eyes but nobody ever looks up - Nora is definitely, absolutely just here for the article.

The killer knows better. And so do the rooftops of the medina - the second street, the one the tourists never see.

A Forged Sky is a twisty, witty cozy mystery set among the souks and rooftops of Morocco's rose-pink city - zero gore, clever clues, charming suspects, and one detail everyone else missed.

Book 4 in the Nora Blake Mysteries. Can be read as a standalone - no cliffhanger, no homework.
