    About this audiobook

    In the world of antiques and collectibles, it helps to have a sharp eye for quality, a good ear for gossip, and a nose for murder.

    When a retired Hollywood A-lister decides to auction off part of his enviable collection of antiques, reporter Molly Appleby is thrilled to be covering the event for Collector's Weekly, and she's certain it will secure the reputation of the dealer handling it, a friend of hers. But soon after the final gavel comes down, the actor's secretary vanishes and the antiques dealer is found dead, apparently having taken his own life. Molly's not sold on the coroner's verdict of suicide, though, and she can't help but start digging for clues to what she suspects is foul play.

    As she begins to delve into the private life of her friend and his connections with the actor's staff, Molly slowly discovers that the dealer was far more unscrupulous than she ever imagined and that nearly everyone who knew him had a motive for murder. And when another body turns up and the devious killer begins leaving mysterious clues to taunt Molly and the police, Molly finds herself facing a cunning culprit who wants to see her going, going, gone . . .

      Actor, Atlas Dolan’s antique collection is going up for auction and Molly Appleby can't wait to see what the collection includes. Fortunately, she is friends with Brett Hamilton whose auction house is handling the event and Molly has garnered an invite. The auction is a huge success so when goes to Brett's home to interview him about the results and finds him hanging from a beam, she isn't convinced that it's suicide. Why, she asks, after such a success? Other clues are apparent to her but not the police, after all they didn't know Brett, she did.Determined to prove that her friend was murdered, Molly enters into the auction world to find the killer.This book was so much better than the previous one - the characters were more intriguing, and the clues delicately placed throughout.

      cozy-mystery, amateur-sleuth, law-enforcement, reporter ***** I really love the sleuth in this series that is new to me! A southern transplant to Vermont, Molly is a happily married reporter for a niche magazine and friend to a local police detective. The plot is original and the characters are very interesting. Cue murder of another friend and let the sleuthing begin! The publisher's blurb is well done and so is the story, so no spoilers here, just a rave review. I requested and received a free ebook from Beyond the Page Publishing via NetGalley. Thank you!
