Just Smashing: Smith and Westen Mysteries, Book 2

By Cindy Davis

A priceless Egyptian vase disappears in front of six witnesses. And, of course, the thief...It's there, then POOF, it's gone.Smith & Westen, New England's most mismatched investigative team is hot on the trail. The ink is barely dry on snake-lover Phoebe Smith and Susie Homemaker Westen Hughes' licenses. Their bank accounts are bursting from their previous windfall, yet they're anxious to get back to work.

Then the call comes.

During the unveiling of a local college's exhibit, the vase worth $1.75 million, disappeared in front of seven people.

- Enrique Vargas's money is rumored to have come from smuggling artifacts. - Model-thin Fiona Frost is his paramour-de-month; the only job she ever had was as a prostitute.

- Donald Abbott is a dealer in ancient weapons, particularly Egyptian ones.- The always-smiling Sophie Oliver has no visible means of support.

- Dana Thornton is head of the exhibit's security, a job that could grow to include the whole campus if he plays his cards right. How did the theft happen right under his nose?

Smith and Westen dodge threats and physical attacks by the suspects...More important, they need to stay one step ahead of insurance adjuster KJ Valentine, who's determined to find the vase and cash in on the 10% finders fee.
