- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Very clever!
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Cleland weaves much antique lingo into her story and explains the process of authenticating antiques very well. I enjoyed the story, but felt the ending flat. I waited for the fat lady to sing and that never happened. Cleland tied up the case, but I felt something missing and feel I need to read longer. I can imagine the snow and terrible storm conditions, but most states deal with Old Man Winter. The characters seemed a little undeveloped in this novel, like a writer tired of the same story.
