A Young Adult Cozy Mystery
For sixteen-year-old Mei Caldwell, landing a summer internship at the Museum of Oddities should have been a dream come true. Instead, it becomes the first chapter of an intriguing mystery that has haunted her small town for half a century.
As Mei catalogs the museum's eclectic collections, a disturbing pattern emerges: seemingly worthless objects are vanishing not only from the museum but from homes throughout the community. Each stolen item, while monetarily insignificant, carries profound emotional weight for its owner. Working alongside her cousin Drew, Mei uncovers an unexpected connection between these contemporary thefts and an unresolved mystery from fifty years ago.
This compelling standalone novel weaves together themes of family bonds, the power of memory, and the courage to right past wrongs.
Author Lia Lucas masterfully crafts a story that reminds us that sometimes the most precious artifacts are the ones that hold our hearts' histories.
