It's weeks before Molly and Daniel will finally wed, but Molly can't resist the lure of one more case. But her simple job of finding an heirloom becomes more when it turns out she is really hired to find a run away Chinese bride. The more she digs, the more Molly isn't sure she wants to find the girl. As always, 1903 New York is brought to great life. The characters are great, and the story kept me turning pages quickly.

I loved this gripping thriller - it had me guessing up to the last page.
Molly and Katie are twins. Katie is the adventurer, and has moved to New York to go to university.
Molly lives an extremely structured life, and finds it hard to deviate from her routine. However, when Molly gets a call telling her that Katie has died suddenly, she must fight her fears, fly to New York and stay in a hostel (all very difficult things for her to do).
There are so many twists and turns in this novel, that I didn’t know what was coming and couldn’t even begin to guess. I couldn’t decide if I even liked the main character Molly or not - she’s not a likeable person, which is probably why her sister moved to another continent. But I like not liking a character - and there was so much to dislike! Molly is manipulative and she’s determined to find the person that she believes killed her twin.
The suspense in this was set to maximum - it’s well worth a read!
