A Josie Prescott Antiques Mystery

The discovery of a mysterious antique trunk leads to a disappearance—and murder—in the latest in this beloved cozy series set on the rugged New Hampshire coast, Jane K. Cleland's Hidden Treasure. When antiques expert Josie Prescott finds a mysterious trunk, no one thinks it could lead to murder. Josie, the owner of Prescott’s Antiques & Auctions, and her new husband, Ty, have finally found their dream home, a Victorian beauty on the beach known in the town of Rocky Point as the “Gingerbread House.” It was recently vacated by Maudie Wilson, an aging widow, whose concerned nieces have moved her into a nearby assisted living facility. Josie befriends Maudie, who seems surprisingly sharp, considering her family’s doubts about her soundness of mind. As Josie and Ty joyfully begin renovations on the Gingerbread House, the nieces report that Maudie, in her forgetfulness, may have left behind an old trunk, which she’s desperate to get back. Sure enough, Josie finds the trunk inside a hidden compartment, and within it a jewel-encrusted box holding a sculpture of a cat. Josie can understand the sense of urgency about getting the objects back—they look valuable, and not just in the sentimental sense. But when Josie goes to return the box to Maudie, the woman has vanished. And on the floor of her empty apartment lies a corpse, a woman bludgeoned to death. Sick with worry for Maudie’s safety, Josie begins to piece together the clues to the murder. Everyone around her seems to want to pitch in, from Maudie’s family, to the receptionist at the facility, to the young couple helping Josie with her renovations, but with the killer so close to home, Josie has to be on her guard.

Test Your Knowledge of Antiques and Collectibles and Learn While You Search

"There are few greater pleasures for the antiques lover than delving into the back rooms and dark corners of junk shops and secondhand stores, searching for the treasures that no one else has found. What can match the thrill of spotting a coveted item at a bargain price? Perhaps the excitement of identifying an obscure object from long ago, or the triumph of detecting a fake? The Great Antiques Treasure Hunt is a unique book that lets you test your knowledge of popular antiques and collectibles." "To browse through these pages is to enter a fabulous storehouse piled high with tables and chairs, china and glassware, clocks and watches, jewelry and silver, scientific instruments, swords, military medals, and more. Some pieces are familiar, others surprising; some valuable, others extremely affordable. And hidden among the more than 700 objects pictured are more than 150 especially intriguing items to search for - in order to answer the clever questions posed about them." "Each of the book's 12 intricate full-color collages covers a major area of collecting and presents a kaleidoscope of discovery and delight. A "decoder" reveals the identity of each piece shown: what it is, where it came from, when it was made, and its approximate value. Armed with this information - and some of your own - you can try to work out the solutions to the author's riddles and take part in The Great Antiques Treasure Hunt." "This ingenious book will keep anyone with an interest in antiques and collectibles enthralled for hours. Bring it along next time you comb the world's flea markets and antiques shops - it will help you discover if you're really getting a good buy!"--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Ever-crafty Josie must confront suspicious antiques dealers and her own friend's killer in Antique Blues, the twelfth mystery in Jane K. Cleland's beloved Josie Prescott Antiques Mystery series set in New Hampshire.

When amateur sleuth and antiques expert Josie Prescott is called in to appraise a Japanese woodblock print and vintage guitar for her friend Mo, she's thrilled--until Mo is murdered.

It doesn't take her long to pinpoint one suspect: Mo's sister's manipulative boyfriend, who sold her the print--and has now, conveniently, disappeared. Josie's antiques know-how and detective skills soon lead her down an increasingly perplexing trail, scattered with gamblers, extramarital affairs, and under-the-table purchases.

Readers will relish a return to Rocky Point with Josie as she works together with her friends--the ambitious young reporter Wes Smith, and Rocky Point's savvy police chief, Ellis Hunter--to sift through the conflicting stories around them and find Mo's killer.

SHE’S GOT THE GOODS . . . As a former military spouse, Sarah Winston’s learned a little about organizing, packing, and moving. Her latest project sounds promising: a couple of tech-industry hipsters, newly arrived in her Massachusetts town, who need to downsize. Unfortunately, when Sarah tries to sell their stuff, she discovers it’s all stolen—and she’s the unwitting fence. BUT SARAH’S PROBLEMS ARE JUST BEGINNING Michelle, an old friend of Sarah’s from the Air Force base, is in line for a promotion—but not everyone is happy about it, and she’s been hit with an anonymous discrimination complaint. When one of the men she suspects is behind the accusations turns up dead in Michelle’s car, Sarah needs to clear Michelle’s name—as well as her own for selling hot merchandise. And she’ll have to do it while also organizing a cat lady’s gigantic collection of feline memorabilia, or they’ll be making room for Sarah in a jail cell . . . Praise for the Sarah Winston Garage Sale Mysteries “There’s a lot going on in this charming mystery, and it all works . . . Well written and executed, this is a definite winner.” —RT Book Reviews, 4 Stars on All Murders Final! “Full of garage-sale tips…amusing. A solid choice for fans of Jane K. Cleland’s Josie Prescott Antique Mystery series.” —Library Journal on Tagged for Death “A slam dunk for those who love antiques and garage sales . . .surprising twists and turns.” —Kirkus Reviews on A Good Day to Buy
