What she didn't expect was her friend to wind up dead shortly after their meeting.

But in her attempt to keep her friend's work alive, she discovers something deadly...the means and motives for murder! And Mrs. Malory will have to read between the lines to find out the truth, before someone else dies for this legacy...
