- Book 3 of 3: The Port Providence Psychic Mysteries
The village librarian is found in her own chair two days before Christmas. Glasses folded. Tea gone cold. Everything squared away. Nothing disturbed, nothing forced, nothing taken.
Except a modest Victorian cameo worth six hundred dollars, which nobody can find.
Chief Hank Caldwell is off the case inside a working day. Daphne's will names him, and a man named in a will does not investigate the death. He is allowed to work a stolen brooch. He is not allowed to work her.
Which leaves Penny Goodwyn, a basset hound, and a gift nobody in this village knows she has.
Penny held that cameo days before Daphne died, and what came off it was grief. Enormous, dated, physical. A weight in the arms that is not there. Salt. A road going away.
She is certain it is a death. She will spend the shortest days of the year proving it — and what her gift gave her was true, and what she made of it was not, and an innocent woman pays four days of her life for the difference.
Daphne Harlow knew every secret in this village and traded none of them. She was not killed for anything she told.
She was killed for the one thing she decided not to.
Inside this book
- A beloved victim, a natural-causes ruling, and a police chief legally barred from the case
- A psychometric gift that delivers feeling and never fact, and the worst misreading Penny has ever made
- A basset hound who notices the thing that is no longer there
- Five fair-play clues, placed in the open — solve it before Penny does
- A secret kept out of love and defended far past all reason
- No gore, no explicit content, and a slow burn that stays closed-door
- The book where Hank Caldwell finally asks Penny how she knows what she knows
Curses and Cameos is the third full-length novel in The Port Providence Antique Mysteries. Every book solves its own murder. The village, the dog and the slow burn carry across all of them.
