Nothing foretold a murder in the glorious city of Saint Francis—until Alexandra arrived for the wedding of the Countess Della Lante. An important gentleman asked the girl to trace the origin of a painting that seemingly appeared out of nowhere in an old monastery. A miracle!—he insists, and the nuns echo him. But the miracle turned into a problem: the painting disappeared, and the abbess was murdered.
There are three days until the wedding. Only three days to find the killer, return the painting, and not spoil the celebration. And, besides that, to learn the touching story of the unfortunate artist—and uncover a couple of family secrets.
Autumn in Assisi. Bells, fog, lentil soup, and gnocchi in thick tomato sauce. Phantom monks, and cold rains. And a bouquet caught by the bride—meaning we’re expecting a second wedding?
