Death Takes A Holiday

Description: Death Takes A Holiday - Antique Shop Mysteries by Susan Sleeman - 2798-LS Death Takes A Holiday - Antique Shop Mysteries by Susan Sleeman Maggie Watson and the members of the Somerset Harbor Historical Society are setting out on a long-awaited trip to Weatherly Village, a living history museum in rural Maine. There they will spend the weekend admiring nineteenth-century antiques, attending craft demonstrations, and dressing in authentic Victorian era costumes. Maggie is looking forward to an exciting adventure, experiencing life as the early colonists lived. But upon her arrival, she learns of a modern-day mystery: One of the village employees, a dear friend of Daisy's niece, has gone missing. Maggie and her friends agree to help find Amanda, but the further their inquiries take them, the longer the list of suspects grows. Maybe Amanda's ex-boyfriend, who has an ax to grind following their recent breakup, allowed his jealousy to drive him over the edge. Or perhaps the manager, who seems more concerned about making money than about the strange disappearance of one of his employees, found a reason to give Amanda a permanent vacation... Meanwhile, Maggie is juggling complicated relationships of her own. She has been assigned the role of the lady of the estate for the weekend, and James, her good friend and Somerset Harbor's most eligible bachelor, is playing the part of her husband. As Maggie tries to get into the spirit of the weekend, she stumbles upon a secret door; one through which she overhears a conversation about a stolen inheritance, the plot to reclaim it . . . and Amanda. Has Maggie located the source of the trouble in Weatherly Village? Or is this just one more stitch in the complicated tapestry of her latest mystery? Maggie and her Somerset Harbor friends are on the case, but when a different Weatherly Village employee is found dead in the manor house kitchen, Maggie knows she must find the culprit before anyone else becomes history.
