Ana Fauré, aged nineteen, discovers that her father, who abandoned her when she was just a little girl, winds up murdered in a small town in France. His line of work, the antique business, was always a mystery for her and she decides to find out more about his last days. It seems that everything hinges on an object that he was after for months, which Ana believes holds the key to discover the murderer. A trip that will take her through Europe and that will make her change her view of her father, her past and herself.
While the story's premise was very interesting and suspenseful, there was just too much adult language for me. Honestly, I don't think it was needed and distracted from the story line. I found the reading a bit of a hard go as it was just a bit difficult to follow in areas but the overall idea and theme of the book was a good one with a bit of the supernatural and of course a murder mystery. The premise reminds me of that old TV show Friday the Thirteenth if I remember right in which a curiosity store owner looked for cursed objects. It would have gotten a higher rating if not for the language.
