Publisher's summary

VINE VOICE: "Just really, really good mystery novel." VINE VOICE: "Samantha does it again!" VINE VOICE: "Fun read!" VINE VOICE: "Peggy Edelheit has done it again!" VINE VOICE: "Great read!" "Another amazing mystery from Edelheit." "Once again, Edelheit weaves masterful dialogue together and forms a rich pattern of plotting, deception, intrigue, and mystery with the eleventh novel in this series." (Based on a true problem in the diamond industry) Sam ends up in a double-blind conspiracy in this gem of a mystery.

The beginning pages open with Sam walking at night. The woods appear ominous. “I really felt as if I were in the woods looking around with the main character. It even pumped my own adrenaline wondering who is out there with her.”

But then Sam takes the reader back to when it all started with an unconscious Chef Emil, a threatening phone call, and a mysterious note reading “caveat emptor” drops you into the latest mystery to be solved by Sam and her crew. “...The book absolutely floored me with the sheer level of suspense and mystery Edelheit incorporated in this book...”

Chef Emil won an antique cane at auction. Sam is asked by him to view the cane, but instead finds him knocked out not far from his front door. The cane is missing! “The story is riveting and intrigues even to the less avid of readers out there.”

So why is this particular cane worth stealing, when all the rest of his valuable canes are still all there and untouched? “I love the writing style of Edelheit. One minute you can be laughing out loud, then it will turn scary!”

Who killed Chef Emil? Why? “I especially enjoyed two literary points in the book. First, Peggy used first-person, present tense narrative throughout this story. The second aspect of Peggy’s writing that stood out to me is the conversational nature of her dialogue and character’s thought process.”

Can Sam get to the bottom of it before she joins Emil in the hereafter? “Well written with comedic elements balance drama, as only Edelheit can do.”

Should Sam and her crew, join the cane club to find out more, solve this murder? “With a menu of red herrings, a raven, a restaurant, rivals, hit and runs, and the red ‘she devil,’ you are sure to be glued to the magic of Samantha’s chaos, entrapment, and certain romancing.”
