Grace Michelle finally seems to be getting her life in order. She has a good marriage. a successful job working as a costume designer for a Burbank movie studio, and she and her husband Chet are fulfilling their dream of offering foster children a refuge on their ranch. Suddenly, her peace is shattered when she receives a telegram from her deceased father. Where has he been for the last twelve years, and why has he chosen to make himself known at this time?
These are just two of the questions that plague Grace in this new book by author Kari Bovee. There's also stolen Russian treasure, a murdered Russian actress, and Grace's dreams about visits from her dead sister. Can Sophie help Grace uncover the truth?
Flo Ziegfeld, glamorous movie studios, and World War 1 are some of the historical references in this enjoyable mystery that is set in 1924, and Bovee laces her plot with danger, adventure, and clues that kept me guessing. I look forward to reading more about this intriguing amateur detective, and I recommend Grace Among Thieves to all who enjoy historical mystery fiction.
I received a copy of this book from iRead Book Tours. There was no obligation for a favorable review. These are my own thoughts.
