For fans of Nora Roberts and Janet Evanovich….



After months of unemployment, her bank account dwindling, Ainsley Walker is starting to wonder if her career as a gemstone detective will ever take off.



THEN



Her life changes when she accepts an offer from a handsome importer to travel to the country of Portugal—the gorgeous but overlooked jewel of Western Europe—to search for a sapphire azulejo that has been stolen from an historic chapel.



On her fast-paced adventure, Ainsley explores thieves’ fairs, antique trams, ancient Roman ruins, and the dangerous roads of rural wine valleys. She finds joy, pain, friendship, duplicity, and murder—and, most importantly, a renewed sense of purpose in life.



From an author who worked on the foreign desk of The Washington Post…



…who was a finalist in a prestigious short story contest sponsored by the estate of F. Scott Fitzgerald…



…comes a travel adventure that will change the way you see your life.
