The case of the Indian curse

the long version

Andrew Tillett, Sara Wiggins & Inspector Wyatt Book 8 From Open Road Media: **Turning up missing is better than turning up dead** Inspector Peter Wyatt is out of town. This is inconvenient, because something is terribly wrong with Andrew Tillett and Sara Wiggins’s friend, antiquities dealer Baron Beasley — and he refuses to see a doctor or speak to anyone except Wyatt. A large man with usually-rosy cheeks and a fondness for exotic delicacies, Beasley now looks like a shadow of himself and can’t be coaxed out of bed. To Sara and Andrew, Beasley doesn’t look sick as much as deathly frightened — which is even more worrisome. What could possibly have driven the robust man into this state? Is it connected to a strange artifact he recently acquired that seems to have disappeared from his shop? Only Beasley knows, and he’s not telling — in fact, he’s disappeared from his room. Andrew and Sara race to find him, throwing themselves into their most dangerous case yet.
