Historian Wrenn Grayson is invited to the Foundling estate. She anticipates meeting the estate’s heiress, Clotilde Bronwyn. Upon arrival, though, she learns of Clotilde’s recent death and that the heiress left a letter addressed to Wrenn. Clotilde writes that she wishes to hire Wrenn to compose her memoriam. Wrenn accepts the challenge.

Clotilde’s family mansion is now the home of the Foundling Historical Society. Society members agree to share memories of the adventurous woman for the memoriam. Another vein of activity at the mansion is the hunt for the long-missing Almond City gold. Bronwyn family ancestors are responsible for this fabled treasure.

The hunt stops when someone is found murdered on the estate grounds. The police suspect Wrenn when she cannot produce an alibi for the time of death. The situation worsens after she admits a dark history with the victim. Wrenn is left with no choice. She must pursue her own risky investigation.
