When one of her customers is shot in the Prescott Antiques parking lot, Josie Prescott is angry. But then the murderer does something that makes the whole thing deeply personal. There's a possible Ponzi scheme with defensive financial advisers and angry customers; there's the possible counterfeiting of antique greenbacks; and there's much more, too, before Josie can figure out why the killing took place. As usual, she's aided--and sometimes hindered--by her friend, ace reporter Wes, and her loyal employees.
