But Veronica soon learns that a question hangs over the party: What happened to Rosamund? Three years ago, Malcolm Romilly's bride vanished on their wedding day, and no trace of her has ever been found. Now, those who were closest to her have gathered, each a possible suspect in her disappearance. Determined to discover Rosamund's fate, Veronica and Stoker match wits with a murderer.
