Grace returns from her honeymoon to find a dead man in her flat. When the police cannot identify the man, Grace just can't let it go. The mystery leads her on an adventure across Europe to identify the man and find out why he died in her home.

I found this on the shelf at the dollar store and purchased based on the back cover description. Best dollar I ever spent!!
This mystery/thriller kept me on my toes the entire time. I couldn't put it down!
