She wants the truth about her fiancé’s death—too bad her best lead has vanished.

The last person Violet Woods wants to team up with is Lucy Litton, her high school rival turned nosy reporter. But when Lucy dangles new intel about Violet’s murdered fiancé, she reluctantly agrees to help with the newshound's latest scoop. Then Lucy ghosts her at a lavish estate auction, and the bidding begins with a dead body.

Desperate for the answers she was promised, Violet uses her magic to discover the high-priced gems for sale are phonies. While she confronts the former estate owner’s ghost and entitled heirs, the real jewelry isn’t the only thing that continues to elude her. Lucy is officially MIA, and if Violet doesn’t act fast, the journalist’s next article might be her own obituary.

Can she unmask the con before the next headline spells death?
