When a helicopter crashes through the skylight of the Asian Art Museum, an audacious heist turns into a tragedy. The only witness to the crash is eleven year-old Grace, who watches in horror as her uncle is killed and a priceless statue stolen.

A helicopter has crashed into the Asian Art museum in an elaborate, successful heist. They have also killed the security guard, 11 year old Grace’s uncle. This is her only relative in the USA. As Grace escapes, she sees a ghost! Her flight from the museum lands her straight into the arms of Sally, a self-appointed guardian of Chinatown and a private investigator in San Francisco.

What made this book for me is the character, Grace! I just love this little girl! She is smart and so vulnerable in many ways! Sometimes an author gets a child wrong but, in my opinion, Tim got this one right! She captured my heart from the very first. And trust me, the opening scene in this book will capture any reader and keep them glued to the pages!

I have not read the others in this series but I have already added them to my tumbling TBR. I need to read more about Cape and Sally and their escapades. I love Cape’s sarcastic wit and Sally’s mysterious past!

I received this novel from the publisher for a honest review. (
