Book Details
SOMEONE IS MURDERING THE MEMBERS OF THE TONTINE ONE BY ONE....
An 18th Century mansion on a lonely stretch of road is at the center of a series of murders in Bromfield, a pretty seaside town north of Boston. The house holds many secrets, including the clues to the location of a fabulous historic jewel, a treasure that may still be hidden in the Virgin Islands... The family patriarch and owner of the mansion played a cruel trick on his descendants by creating a tontine instead of a will, pitting family members against each other. The final inheritance of the estate goes to the person who survives all the others and someone is murdering the members of the tontine one by one. Veronica Howard must find the killer before she falls victim herself!
