A portrait was altered.
A woman was erased.
And the grave at Briarwood may contain the wrong sister.
Hidden inside a servant's sewing box, antiques appraiser Susan Stewart finds an exquisite Victorian mourning brooch engraved for a daughter of the house who died in 1888. The moment her bare skin touches the gold, Susan sees what the brooch remembers.
Before she can make sense of what she's uncovered, the man who hired her is found poisoned behind a locked archive door.
Now Briarwood is crawling with detectives, heirs, claimants, and descendants, each with a competing version of the truth. Somewhere among them is a killer.
Susan must solve two mysteries at once: a present-day murder she can prove only through documents, forensic evidence, and carefully guarded chains of custody, and a Victorian secret only she can see.
Someone went to extraordinary lengths to erase what happened at Briarwood more than a century ago. Now someone is killing to make sure Susan doesn't put it back into the record.
The Mourning Brooch is Book One of The Objects Remember Mysteries. For readers of Kate Morton and Barbara Erskine, a dual-timeline mystery where the past doesn't stay buried.
