Murder Steals the Show (Rooftop Garden Mystery 7)

All that glitters…
Might lead to murder.
It’s spring in the
cozy little town of Blue Valley, Tennessee, and that means it’s time
once again for the return of the Nottingham Medieval Faire. This year,
the faire is under new ownership, and is better than ever, with a
fantasy vibe that features fairies and trolls, dragons and wizards,
goblins and imps galore.
The Faire isn’t the only exciting thing
happening in town this spring. A famous jeweled necklace, known as the
Scarlet Lady, is making a stop at the Blue Valley Heritage Museum. The
necklace—steeped in local history and lore—boasts a huge white diamond
set in rubies. The whole town is abuzz and is waiting breathlessly to
view the necklace, but the same day it arrives, it disappears.
A body
is found near the museum, and Alice and her friends find themselves
wondering if the murder and the robbery are connected. When Little John
confesses that he’s been noticing a string of thefts in other towns the
faire has visited—and with Luke and Ben out of town on business—it’ll be
up to Alice, Owen, and Franny to find out if someone connected with the
faire is a thief…and a murderer.
