Sometimes no matter what you do, the past just won't stay dead.
When American expat Maggie Newberry visits a new friend in Metz, France she never expected to get drawn into investigating a decades-old cold case murder. But when her new friend reveals a shocking and sadly unsolved crime from the past Maggie knows she needs to try to help another American family find closure.
Ten years ago, a young woman named Olivia was found dead in Les Jardins Exotiques botanical garden in Metz. The French police ruled it an accidental drowning, but her family never believed it. Navigating the complexities of the French police and winning over the tight-lipped locals grows trickier as Maggie starts receiving ominous warnings.
Could the answers she seeks about Olivia's mysterious death lie buried in Metz's shadowy history as an occupied stronghold during WWII? To solve the case and bring closure to her new friend—and justice to the killer—Maggie must peel back the city's layers of secrets, no matter the personal costs.
