Death is discovered on an idyllic Southern California island when feisty British tabloid reporter Tosca Trevant arrives from Cornwall. Banished from her royal beat by Buckingham Palace she stumbles across human remains in the garden of a renowned music professor. Facing danger twice over, she sleuths with the help of a retired Secret Service Agent who harbors his own secrets, and a few well-chosen Cornish cusswords. Tosca brings her knowledge of classical music and rare medieval instruments to sort out the clues and solve the puzzle in traditional Agatha Christie style.

Murders, a mysterious gemstone, and lost manuscripts offer banished British reporter Tosca Trevant a chance to earn her way back to her beloved Cornwall and her job in London. The strange events and characters at her new California island home include a woman dropping dead practically at Tosca's feet, a famous author's lost manuscripts, and a creepy collector of rare stringed instruments. With her sidekick, an ex-Secret Service Agent, and several jugs of home-brewed mead, she digs deep to track down the killer.
