Description
When museum director Malcolm Winters dies at a gala,
café owner and amateur sleuth Izzy Harper finds herself tangled in his secrets.
A priceless cookbook vanishes.
An ancient bronze fragment impossibly advanced.
Together they unlock something worth killing for.
The suspects? A roster of colorful characters with deadly secrets.
An aristocratic heir whose stolen legacy was worth Winters’ life.
An ambitious curator whose million-dollar deal needed Winters gone.
A scholar whose public humiliation by Winters demanded private revenge.
But Izzy has an edge: Noodle, her golden retriever.
Failed service dog, successful detective.
Smells danger before it strikes.
Finds clues humans miss.
Knows every liar.
As the murder investigation deepens, Izzy uncovers a century-old conspiracy.
The fragment isn’t just valuable.
It’s part of something that shouldn’t exist.
Five fragments left, each one a death sentence. They know Izzy has the first.
The second holds the key to Winters’ murder—if she lives to find it
