A priceless tiara goes missing from the hotel’s safe, and three people are left dead.
Detective Beau Savoie discovers the robbery was an inside job, making everybody at the Darkwater Inn a suspect–including Dimitri, the son of the inn’s owner and Beau’s competition for Adelaide’s heart.
Tensions are high, and the stakes get even higher when Adelaide is abducted. Can Dimitri and Beau put aside their distrust and work together to save her?
