This 'mystery' was a bit contrived - but as long as MHC keeps writing I will be reading her books. I am still entertained even if I am not on the edge of my seat. The story centers around sisters Kate and Hannah. When they were quite young their mother died in an accident. Their father, who preferred to be called Doug instead of Dad, was crushed by the lost and wasn't a very caring parent. He did give them financial stability with the success of the family furniture firm which specialized in authentic reproductions. All of that becomes shaky when an explosion rips through the building destroying the precious antiques in the museum part of the building. Worse yet is that Kate was there early that morning when it happened. She had arranged to meet a former employee, Gus, who had been fired five years before. The explosion killed Gus and seriously injured Kate who ends up in a coma. There is more than one crime to investigate when a sinkhole produced by the explosion reveals a long-hidden secret. Of course there is a little romance sprinkled in here and there.
