    About this ebook

    London comes to life in this compelling story. . . The necklace had once belonged to Madame Pompadour—mistress of the French King Louis XV.

     

    Now it's gone. Stolen by a clever conman. And it will take every ounce of determination and ingenuity a young woman possesses to recover it.

     

    But can a mere girl from Calais outwit a practiced fraudster?

     

    From the author of the Joseph Haydn Mysteries and the Celine Skye Psychic Mystery series comes a delightful new series.

    Author

    Nupur Tustin

    A former journalist, Nupur Tustin relies upon a Ph.D. in Communication and an M.A. in English to orchestrate fictional mayhem.  The Haydn mysteries are a result of her life-long passion for classical music and its history. Childhood piano lessons and a 1903 Weber Upright share equal blame for her original compositions, available on ntustin.musicaneo.com. Her writing includes work for Reuters and CNBC, short stories and freelance articles, and research published in peer-reviewed academic journals. She lives in Southern California with her husband, three rambunctious children, and a pit bull. For details on the Haydn series and monthly blog posts on the great composer, visit the official Haydn Mystery web site: ntustin.com.
