A FREE Prequel to The Isabella Hartwell Society Mysteries

An American heiress crossing the Atlantic. A jewel theft at sea. A mind that refuses the obvious.

When Isabella Hartwell sails for England, she expects to be judged, courted, and pursued for her fortune. She does not expect a priceless emerald necklace to vanish midway across the Atlantic.

Suspicion quickly settles on the most convenient culprit: a foreign maid.

But Isabella has never trusted convenient answers.

With the ship days from port and reputations at stake, she begins to notice what others overlook: a careless detail, a discrepancy in a ledger, a truth hiding in plain sight.

England may be waiting. But Isabella Hartwell will arrive on her own terms.
