Art historian Vicky Bliss may be blond and beautiful, but looks
can be deceiving. She also has the brain of an Einstein, the
reckless courage of a test pilot--and no one's more savvy about
fine works of art. For example: the gold pendant her boss at
Munich's National Museum is currently dangling in front of her.
It's an exquisite replica of a Charlemagne talisman--and it was
found, along with a note written in hieroglyphs, sewn into the suit
pocket of an unidentified man lying dead in an alley.
There's a murderous puzzle to unravel--and Vicky will start by
hunting down the master craftsperson who created the magnificent
piece, even if the search carries her to the ends of the Earth.
Instead, it's pointing her toward Rome, the most romantic city in
the world. But it's also pulling her into a treacherous game of
intrigue where the stakes could not be higher: Vicky's life!
