But when a necklace belonging to the Queen is stolen on the catwalk, Georgie has to find two priceless items - and solve a murder. How's a girl to find any time to go to the casino?, The national bestselling author of "Royal Blood" whisks her heroine away to the French Riviera for fun-and danger.

    Seller exceeded expectations in every way. They accepted a really great offer price, which was much appreciated. The book was in excellent condition, exactly as shown in pictures. Packaging was extremely secure, and the package was shipped promptly. And to top it all off, the seller included a bonus book as a freebie. My wife was absolutely thrilled when she opened the box today. Thank you for going above and beyond.
