This is one weekend getaway Anne can’t wait to get away from.
It’s July in exotic Southern Switzerland and life is sweet. When her husband surprises Anne with a romantic getaway to a hilltop castle, she couldn't be happier. What could be better than a refreshing escape to a fairytale chateau in the folds of the Swiss Alps, away from the old bookstore and its never-ending mysteries?
But all is not as it seems at the castle. Situated in a region steeped in legends about knights and dragons, the castle’s grounds are teeming with unexplained phenomena. The apparitions are enough to make Anne wish she was back at work.
When a castle guest dies in puzzling circumstances, and the police show up at the old bookstore looking for a book on dragons, Anne can’t help but be intrigued.
Now buried in research about dragon bones, assisted by the store’s peculiar black cat, Anne is on the trail of a fire-breathing legend that seems to be very much alive.
Can she find the chink in the armor of this murderous mystery or will she end up being a damsel in distress?
