Behind the glass of Bath's grandest winter garden, every jewel catch light. One catches blood.
nIn the autumn of 1932, Julian Ashcombe and Clara Bennett arrive at a luxury hotel where a rare jewel has vanished during a fashionable gathering. Before the guests can agree who had the chance to steal it, a visitor with an eye for precious things is murdered.
nThe hotel offers no shortage of suspects: collectors guarding their pride, staff guarding their livelihoods, and guests whose friendships have been purchased at a price. The missing jewel seems the obvious motive, yet Clara begins to suspect that the theft has a history no one has admitted. Julian follows the elegant explanations offered across dinner tables and discovers that the most convincing story may have begun before the crime was even noticed.
nAs the winter garden fills with whispers, Julian and Clara must untangle what was taken, when it truly disappeared, and why murder became necessary. In a world built on beauty, value and appearance, one overlooked detail may show them which loss matters most.
