Sometimes the glass really is half empty-especially when people are willing to kill for it.
Crime-scene cleaner Gabby St. Claire needs extra cash, so when she's offered a courier job transporting a box of antique dishes from North Carolina to Virginia, she figures it's easy money. What could go wrong with delivering a dozen old teacups?
Everything, as it turns out. When half the precious cargo disappears during transport, Gabby finds herself facing an angry recipient who wants his family heirlooms delivered as promised-or else.
As the clock ticks toward a fatal deadline, Gabby must use her sleuthing skills to track down the missing cups. But when dangerous people suddenly take an interest in her whereabouts and she starts receiving threatening messages, she soon realizes these teacups are more than just sentimental keepsakes.
Can she uncover the truth behind the "simple" delivery job? Or will her latest attempt at easy money become her last?
