Lost and FoundCady Briggs, an expert in finding, evaluating, and brokering antiquities, has built up a fantasy around her online business acquaintance, Mack Easton, owner and CEO of a low-profile "collections" company called Lost and Found. Together the duo track some missing antiques and artworks, indulging in a bit of flirtatious online banter in the process. When Cady finally gets to meet Easton in person, the case that brings them together -- the theft of an ancient warrior's helmet -- culminates in a life-threatening encounter with a couple of thugs and a shared night of passion between the sheets. But Cady's fascination with Easton is temporarily put on hold when her beloved but eccentric aunt, Vesta, is found dead, apparently having drowned while swimming in her pool. |
