The Highland Heist (A Freddie and Grace Mystery #4) by Pepper Basham


 

Grace Storms a Scottish Castle to Save her Sister   Lord Astley surprises his wife with a trip to America to see her family before they end their honeymoon adventures. But just as they arrive, they find Grace's sister, Lillias, is the prime suspect in her husband's murder. To add to the confusion a solicitor arrives to tell the sister's they are needed in Scotland immediately to claim their mother's inheritance.   The clock is ticking to clear Lillias of suspicion, but someone is determined to keep the sisters from reaching the Scottish Highlands. When Lillias disappears, Freddie and Grace race to Scotland, sure the answers will be found in a long-forgotten castle.   With a ghost from Frederick's past leaving threatening clues along the way, the mysterious Mr. Kane waiting in the wings to grab the inheritance for himself, and an apparition haunting the infamous castle, Lord and Lady Astley must capture the castle, save Lillias, and not die in the process.  The Highland Heist is a Freddie and Grace Mystery, sequel to The Mistletoe Countess, The Cairo Curse, and The Juliet Code.

My Review


Another adventure with Grace and Freddy, and as usual you wonder if either of these two will survive to the end.
As this read begins we are visiting back at Grace's home in America, but end up with startling news, and then with a visit to her sister, we find a murder. This happens in a few short pages, but we are quickly turning the rest of the book for answers.
We do end up in Scotland, and again, how or will they make it out alive?
The sister's are reunited, we meet the new baby, and find a fresh body. People keep getting hit on the head, and danger appears to be everywhere.
There is a new inheritance that needs to be found, and the adventures keep giving. A delightful read that sure keeps your attention from beginning to end.
In the end I wanted to to keep going on in these character's lives, I need or want to know more!
Hoping for more answers in the next book?
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Barbour, and was not required to give a positive review.
