Publisher's summary

Four mysterious words prompt antiques dealer Precious Rafferty to embark on a quest across Europe to uncover their meaning. Preshy, at age 38, loves her American-in-Paris life, but thinks that she'll never be swept off her feet: until she meets Bennett James. As their whirlwind courtship progresses, though, she realizes that there is much about his business life in Shanghai she doesn't know. Then she receives an urgent message from Lily Song, a cousin she's never met. Lily lives in Shanghai and knows the antiques underworld there - and she has a secret important enough to draw her to Venice to meet Preshy for the first time, face-to-face. In Venice, Preshy will have to weave through a maze of betrayers to discover who she can trust with her heart...and with her life.

Really a very good book.

I really enjoyed this book. The story was excellent. The characters were funny , charming , interesting and intelligent. It's one of those books that even if you don't like mysteries you would like this book. There is just so much more to it.

Interesting plot, sloppy writing

I was mildly entertained but two things bothered me: the use of certain words over and over within the chapters and the horrible Boston accent of the narrator.

The story was good overall but rambled at times and was too long.

Weak spots in the plot and the main character was too naive. The glimpses into far away places was enjoyable.
I like that they weren’t descriptive of the bedroom parts.

What a sweet & delicious book 📖

I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this book. Were it a movie, I’m sure it would have been called a chick flick. Nonetheless it was exquisitely performed and the whole thing made me happy. ☺️

Cute

Nice story but honestly, the narrator needs a little work on her accents. Or maybe the story needs a new narrator. Nevertheless it’s a worthwhile listen.

Elizabeth Adler is my new favorite

What a surprise Elizabeth Adler’s books turned out to be! I downloaded all of her books that were included in my membership, and enjoyed everyone so much. Have been avoided people so I can just listen to one after the other. Now I’m going to be purchasing. Thank you Audible for the introduction. Very interesting story lines with so many twists and turns. Great characters. Please do an interview with the author. Thank you!

A page turner

Once again, Elizabeth Adler delivered on another excellent mystery novel through Europe & the USA, but this time she included Shanghai- wonderful!
