Silhouette in Scarlet: A Vicky Bliss Novel of Suspense (Vicky Bliss Series, 3) - Softcover
One perfect red rose, a one-way ticket to Stockholm, and a cryptic "message" consisting of two Latin words intrigue art historian Vicky Bliss—as they were precisely intended to do. Beautiful, brilliant and, as always, dangerously inquisitive, Vicky recognizes the handiwork of her former lover, the daring jewel thief John Smythe. So she takes the bait, eagerly following Smythe's lead in the hope of finding a lost treasure.
But the trail begins with a priceless fifth-century chalice, which will place Vicky at the mercy of a gang of ruthless criminals who have their eyes on an even more valuable prize. And the hunt threatens to turn deadly on a remote island, where a captive Vicky Bliss must lead an excavation into the distant past—and where digging too deep for the truth could dig her own grave.

About the Author:
Review:
Elizabeth Peters earned her Ph.D. in Egyptology from the University of Chicago’s famed Oriental Institute. During her fifty-year career, she wrote more than seventy novels and three nonfiction books on Egypt. She received numerous writing awards and, in 2012, was given the first Amelia Peabody Award, created in her honor. She died in 2013, leaving a partially completed manuscript of The Painted Queen.
"One of Elizabeth Peters' best thrillers yet...full of suspense, marvelously evocative, and so funny you will laugh aloud as you read it."--"Publishers Weekly"No one is better at juggling torches while dancing on a high wire than Elizabeth Peters."--"Chicago Tribune"The well-woven plot and exotic atmosphere couldn't be much better...[It] will delight her fans."--"Library Journal
