Lily turns to her friend Daphne Smythe Baird and her husband Philip to authentic the gems before deciding what to do with them. Alice is optimistic that her “find” could possibly help the struggling magazine. Alice seeks assistance from her college friend, Jacob Myers, who is presently an influential writer. Eventually, they form “the fellowship of the necklace” as they investigate the necklace including the new owner, Luc Seguin, who took over for his mother Olivia, former chief editor. The officer manager, Madame Élise Boucher, has worked for Bonjour Paris for more than 50 years and provides some historical context to life in 1865 France.

Gorgeous and with a pleasingly merry disposition, Marguerite was born Justine Leboeuf in 1838, dirt poor in a backwater village near Saumur.”
The history of the Honeybee Emeralds is one filled with mystery and adventure as it seemed to travel from Madi Hari to famed American singer Josephine Baker during the Roaring Twenties.
There’s still one mystery that remains, how did this prized possession end up in the basement of a Parisian magazine company?
