Résumé :
In a thrilling continuation of the Spencer Manning Mystery series, Spencer takes us from Chicago to Door County, Wisconsin, a quaint resort area with all the history and charm of a cozy vacation spot. When Spencer's old girlfriend is accused of stealing her own painting and then vanishes without a trace, Spencer suspects something more sinister than art theft. That's when the murders begin. When another painting is reported stolen from the gallery in Chicago, the mystery deepens because the painting is worthless. So why was it stolen? The gallery is in Chicago, and the murders are in Door County. Trying to find the connection leads Spencer to a Chicago crime boss, a police chief who is not fond of Spencer's snooping, and a handful of questionable characters all of whom may not be what they seem. The mystery deepens when kidnapping is added to the list. But who has been kidnapped? With help from some unexpected sources, Spencer lays a trap for a daring rescue. All of Spencer's friends return for an entertaining tale of murder and intrigue on the streets of Chicago....
