A tragic accident, an unknown artist, and a discovery below the landscape. Can Sue connect the random details before her granddaughter becomes another victim?
Sue Jaworski comforts garden club member, Ruth, after her nephew dies in a tragic accident that seriously injures four other high school band members. While paying her respects, Sue notices oil paintings by the same person as those she purchases at Trinkets and Treasures, only to learn that Ruth’s fiancé, missing for 40 years, is the artist.
The closed case catches Sue’s attention, especially after granddaughter, Jessica, shows Sue the actual location of the beautiful landscapes. To her dismay, Sue discovers that the area lies above an abandoned coal mine, leaving local residents at risk from its residual effects.
As she investigates, with the support of her police chief husband, Alan, Sue uncovers details of collusion years ago between a member of town council who changed the town bylaws and the owner of the mining company, all leading back to Ruth. In the meantime, Jessica goes missing.
