Frame Work

When college teacher Sarah Brandau is invited to a literary conference in Prague, she persuades her grandmother, Edith, who raised her when her parents died, to travel from Manhattan for a reunion in the fabled city. Browsing in an antique shop, Edith is attracted to a picture with an ornate frame. But when they return to the hotel, Sarah and Edith discover they got more than they bargained for - and are in more danger than they ever could have imagined.
