Second Latchkey

Second Latchkey

Charles Norris Williamson

A spare key. A stolen jewel. A woman who sees what others cannot.When a magnificent diamond vanishes from an English country house, the police find themselves chasing shadows. But the solution lies not in fingerprints or motives, but in the gift of second sight possessed by one unlikely witness. What follows is a high-stakes game of detection that spans from the foggy manors of England to the glittering salons of New York, where society's elite guard their secrets jealously and love becomes as dangerous as any thief. The title whispers of someone waiting, of a door unlocked by a second key and all the chaos that follows. Vintage mystery meets supernatural intrigue in this transatlantic tale of greed, passion, and the things we cannot explain.
