Hana Keller is enjoying a day off from serving up tea and delicious pastries at her family's Hungarian Tea House when her downtime turns deadly....
The only thing Hana loves more than a good cuppa is finding a delicate porcelain treasure to add to her collection. She's usually on the hunt for teacups but when she spots a rare wolf figurine at a local yard sale, she knows it's her lucky day. Hana also knows the wolf is valuable and tells the seller that he's charging too little for it. His reaction is peculiar--he says he received the wolf from someone he doesn't trust and he just wants it out of his life.
Hana is inspecting her new prize when she finds a tiny microchip attached to the bottom of the porcelain wolf. When she shows the figure to her police detective boyfriend, Erik, Hana is shocked to learn that the chip is actually a tracking device. They decide to confront the seller about the sneaky sale but when they arrive at his house, they find him dead. Erik and Hana now must hunt a calculating killer who has no intentions of crying wolf when it comes to murder...
Hana and Katie (her BFF) are at a sale, a local artist sells through stuff every so often to a) clear space and b) make sure he has enough ready cash for artist supplies. Katie manages to spot a couple of things she thinks Hana will love, one of which Hana is stunned to see priced at $5 when she is certain that it is worth a hundred times that! The Artist (one Will Kodaly) says that the wolf figurine for him has bad memories and he is happy to let her have it for the price stated on the tag. After getting that, a couple of picture and a sweater, she heads off to meet Erik and shows him the wolf he spots a tracker chip on the bottom, so the two of them head back to discuss it, only discover Mr Kodaly has been murdered!
Now Erik switches gear from attentive boyfriend to focused Detective (telling Hana the wolf will have to be taken as evidence, but she will get it back), then we start the roller coaster! Erik and Hana have an argument and almost split up, Hana finds two stunning blonde women in his apartment, she is being stalked and there are red herrings all over the show, this was a page turner and a half and I hope there will be more in the series.
