Just finished The Glass Thief by Gigi Pandian. It is coming out November 12. I really like all of this authors books.
A locked-room mystery at a Paris mansion. A supposed ghost haunting a French family who looted treasure from Cambodia.
A reclusive thriller author writing a novel in honor of historian Jaya Jones--is it a work of fiction or a devious device to lure Jaya into solving a chilling mystery?
Three unsolved murders spanning seventy years have befallen the same French family, each taking place two nights before Christmas at their Paris mansion--and blamed on the family ghost.
When Jaya realizes the truth hits closer to home than she realized, she must risk everything as she flees San Francisco for France and Cambodia to find a missing sculpture known as the Serpent King and stop a flesh and blood killer."
Jaya is asked to read the latest book by her favorite author, chapter by chapter. The author, Rick, has been in seclusion for seven years, and hasn't written a book in that time. As she reads the chapters, she thinks this story may be based in reality and can't help but get involved in looking for the lost treasure. But in order to do this, she must solve the mystery of the deaths by a "ghost" in the Paris mansion.
The Glass Thief is a complex mystery with many layers to it. The story takes Jaya from San Francisco, to France and finally to Cambodia, all the while trying to solve a locked room mystery. Very interesting historical information about artifacts from Cambodia and India woven into the story. Lots of interesting characters; Lane and his background, Sebastien the elderly magician, Sanjay, Wesley and Becca. The end of the book is fast paced and tense with a really good ending.
If you would like to check out Gigi's books, here is her website. I like her Accidental Alchemist books too, which includes some good recipes.
