Newlyweds Lord and Lady Astley Finally Reach Their Honeymoon Destination Only to Encounter a New Mystery in Need of Solving
Frederick and Grace Percy finally make it to Italy to enjoy a delayed
honeymoon and explore the beauties of the historic city of Venice. To
their surprise, their friend, Detective Jack Miracle, is also in the
city, investigating a series of art heists starting at the house of
eccentric millionaire, Laraby Covington. Drawn into a world of boat
races, mysterious houses, and parties of the rich and unusual in Venice,
Frederick and Grace learn of the existence of the Juliet paintings,
(Renaissance paintings feature Shakespeare’s tragic heroine) rumored to
hold a secret code to an underground vault of similarly treasured
artwork assumed lost over the centuries. As Freddie and Grace are pulled
deeper into the mystery and their beloved Detective Jack disappears,
can they use their wits and work as a team to find the thieves and Jack
before it’s too late.

My Review
You are going to love the banter between Grace and Frederick, such fun and love!
Now our girl Grace, an avid reader, wants to make her parasol deadly, and we are there as it actually happens.
We are gifted with beautiful Venice, and end up on the coast on an island. There the danger begins, and why? Well, answers come, and we soon wonder whom they can trust? Everyone becomes a suspect!
While we enjoy this newly wed couple, danger is lurking, along with a hidden treasure, along with stolen paintings. What is the correlation of the paintings and the island? Well, you will find out!
In the end answers come along with danger, and some not making it to the end!
Page turner for sure!
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Barbour, and was not required to give a positive review.
