The Forty Column Castle

Claudie Lowell is sucked into the sinister world of antiquities thieves in the course of trying to clear her eccentric aunt from charges of masterminding an international smuggling ring on the island of Cyprus. Zach Lamont, posing as an undercover agent, comes to Claudie’s aide but turns out to be part of the ring of thieves himself -- or so it seems. The further Claudie digs into this murky world the more she finds she can trust no one, not even the aunt she is trying to help -- and especially not the man to whom she has a dangerous attraction.
“ The Forty Column Castle is a perfect blend of filial concern, romance, international intrigue, fashion, and surprising plot twists that create a lighthearted escape from the burdens of daily life. You'll have fun reading it. ”
BJ Appelgren, author of The Transparent Feather and Sunny Side Up
