For one of Innisdale's residents, a priceless sonnet
means poetic license to kill...
Grace Hollister's stay in England's picturesque Lake
District has proven doubly fruitful -- the American
literary scholar just sold her first book, and her romance
with charming antiques dealer and ex-jewel thief Peter Fox
has begun a new chapter. Sorting through a hoard of papers
found in an old farmhouse, Grace and Peter discover an old
letter that refers to a lost Shelley sonnet, "Sate the
Sphinx." Before Grace can start tracking down this poetic
treasure, though, Peter's shady past rears its head -- a
particularly ugly head, belonging to a menacing Turk who's
eager to see Peter dead.
But there's plenty more trouble in store. Suddenly Grace
and Peter are suspects in a murder investigation, and
someone has tried his level best to kill her -- not once,
but twice. The hieroglyphics are on the wall: unless Grace
can unravel an inscrutable riddle and unearth the villain
amid a cache of likely suspects, her story might be at an
end. . . .
