Brooklyn Wainwright has a tendency to find dead bodies. While attending the groundbreaking for a her parents’ commune’s wine-tasting cave, Brooklyn discovers a dead body. This time the body is over 70 years old. With the body is a treasure trove of valuable paintings and keepsakes that date back to WWII. An old mystery, however, soon turns deadly One of the commune’s oldest members, Trudy, is almost killed. She has no memory of who her assailant was or how Amelia, her friend and protector, wound up dead saving her. With time running out and someone desperate to keep the past buried, it’s up to Brooklyn and her boyfriend, Derek, to solve the case. Will Brooklyn solve the two mysteries? Will Trudy remember who attacked her? Who is trying to keep the past buried?


Narrator, Susie Berneis’ narrative style is unique and engaging. Her intonations easily distinguish and bring to life Carlisle’s dynamic characters. The plot is well developed, suspenseful, and has a good pace. The narration complements the plot well and brings to life Brooklyn’s world. Although it is possible to listen to this book without having finished the 8 prequels, it is recommended that listeners listen to them in order. This is a great listen for mystery, amateur sleuths, and clean romance fans.
