York, England: June 1940

While Jemma continues to search for her missing husband, the citizens of historic York are shocked by a series of vicious crimes at the city's two museums.

A bungled break-in at the Yorkshire Museum is quickly followed by the brutal murder of Lance Richards, a sub-curator at the neighboring Castle Museum.

The main suspect is Anthony Gill, a quiet and unprepossessing clerk. But Gill doesn't have an alibi and is uncooperative with the police. His desperate lawyer hires Jemma and Bobbie from Smoke & Cracked Mirrors to prove his innocence.

Meanwhile, the two women are led a merry dance by Jodie, a famous and spirited actress, whose aristocrat husband wants evidence for a divorce.

As the nation waits nervously to hear the fate of their sons and brothers trapped at Dunkirk, a twisting series of events whisk Jemma and Bobbie through the glamourous world of the starlet, down corridors of dusty fossils, and into terrifying danger.

Vengeful passions and a dark crime lie beneath the civilized veneer of those elders who preserve our history. But if Anthony Gill didn't murder Lance Richards, who did—and why?

I loved the story and the narration was fantastic. Easy to listen to and a good pace. Charming, witty and intriguing with lots of twists and turns to keep you guessing. Heartwarming yet heart-rending, the story and the characters demonstrated for me, the almonds and raisins of life. Can't wait for the next instalment.

I’ve only given this a rating of 3 because of the awful narration. The story is enjoyable and well written but the narrator totally ruins the book. I had to resort to buying the kindle book as I found her voice so irritating. She puts on silly voices for characters who are supposed to be Yorkshire (Bobby’s parents) but sound nothing like any one I’ve ever heard from that county, yet makes Bobby and Gemma sound like they went to a public school down South. The policeman Fawcett sounds ridiculous, more like Fagin than anything else. I hope that the next book won’t be read by this awful narrator as I won’t be purchasing if it is.

Really enjoyable despite the awful narration
