ACCEPTABLE: Because some of the pages in the front and in the back of the book have gaps of separation from the remaining text block—but are still adhered to the binding—this book has been given an Acceptable rating. All the pages are present and there is no writing on them; however, the previous owner has written the book's sequence number under the front flap on the inside of the front cover.
Product Details
This story serves as the introduction to Shannon McClain, who is a recently-widowed mother of Alec and Lara. Although she runs her own custom jewelry business in Scotland, her financial future is looking dismal as her late husband's insurance policy money is nearly depleted.
But Shannon's fortunes are about to change: she has inherited a portion of a large estate in the United States from someone who claimed to be her grandmother. Shannon never knew her mother's side of the family, so this inheritance comes as a big surprise. There are other people out there, however, who would like to keep Shannon from her inheritance.
"Is Shannon willing to risk her life to finally learn the truth about her family? And can she trust the handsome investigator who offers his help? Join Shannon and her friends as they unravel the mystery behind her mother's disappearance and discover the identity of the one person who would like nothing more than to see Shannon disappear as well." (from the back dustjacket flap)
