Enigma at the Antique Shop

Brandy Broot attends an estate sale at Whitaker House where a rumored cursed locket sparks a heated brawl among heirs and collectors. When the estate's antique dealer, Mr. Whitaker, is found unconscious and the locket vanishes, Brandy must sort superstition from motive, track provenance through receipts and letters, and expose who benefits from fear. Peter keeps Brandy grounded, Maeve runs the formal inquiry, and the town's appetite for folklore complicates the truth.
