Publisher Description
A frantic phone call from an old and dear friend on the other side of the world sends Henrie O to San Antonio, Texas, in search of her friend's granddaughter, Iris Chavez. Iris had been working at the family-owned Tesoros Gallery, a shop renowned for the priceless treasures it hunts for its rich and famous patrons. Iris has disappeared without a word; her apartment has been ransacked, yet nothing is missing. And nobody at Tesoros seems to care. Why? Somewhere in the gallery or among the family members is a secret - a secret Henrie O must uncover if she is to find Iris.

"An excellent mystery centered around the River Walk in San Antonio. The author's description of the River Walk and of the characters that live there was familiar and comforting. I have lived in San Antonio and loved visiting the River walk."

“The milieu (a lovely shop full of gorgeous objects), the characters, and the bracing Henrie O herself are well worth the price of admission.”
— Amazon.com, editorial review -
“The strength of Hart’s latest lies not in its mystery…but in its sleuth: sixty-something Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist Henrietta O’Dwyer Collins.…[She] carries the show.”
— Publishers Weekly -
“What sets Carolyn Hart’s Henrie 0 series apart is her charming protagonist…Fans of the series will welcome this addition.”

" Very pleasurable! Good descriptive writing of both the scene and the people. Not particularly suspenseful. The plot and mystery are solid. The characters believably give credence to the story. I look forward to hearing Carolyn Hart at the author's luncheon at ULA! "
— Marilyn, 12/4/2013 -
" This book really transported me to another place and culture. I found it extremely vivid and one of the standouts in a series that is best read in order. Kudos this book and the entire series. "
— Eleanor, 10/26/2013 -

" the reader [of this audiobook]is so awful, it's hard to tell how awful the writing is!! But it's pretty bad. "
— Imasongbyrd, 8/29/2013 -
" I really like San Antonio as the setting for this book. My favorite Henry O so far. "
— Terri, 7/25/2013 -
" as much as I enjoy the Henri O series, I'm not too sure I enjoyed this one as much. it's a Tad immature that the characters have made such reckless decisions and they're way of thinking. The story itself seemed to move fast but at the same time felt like it dragged...if that makes any sense. "
— Jamie, 3/20/2013 -
" Enjoyed. I always enjoy reading about spots we have visited. I will give some of her other books a try. "
— Nancy, 3/6/2013 -
" Hart sets each of her mysteries in a unique location and tells the reader a bit about the history. The murder wasn't discoverable till near the end -- fun story. "
— Sarah, 2/27/2013 -
" Cozy mysteries dealing with reporter Henrie O. "
— Vicky, 2/14/2013 -
" The hidden passageways and dark spaces of this multi-level residence (and hotel and art gallery!) on the Riverwalk brought this murder-mystery to life for this San Antonian. "
— Helena, 1/28/2013 -
" This was the first book of Carolyn Hart books that I stumbled across and I was hooked. I loved it. I have been to the setting area and she captured the feel and the life of the River Walk. The intrigue kept my interest throughout. Fun Book. "
— Kris, 1/19/2013 -

— Saskia, 9/23/2012 -
" Blah. Even Henrie O annoyed me in this one. What a cluster of unlikeable twerps! "
— Julie, 8/26/2012 -
" I enjoyed her other "detective" as much as the other one. I really did not know who had "done it" until the second to the last page. Very enjoyable reading. "
— Morrigan, 7/17/2012 -
" I always like Carolyn Hart's mysteries, this one set in the exclusive world of those who buy and sell very expensive and exclusive folk art from Mexico. I like best those puzzles I cannot solve easily. I guessed this one, but not until quite late. "
— Sandra, 6/22/2012 -
" Great detail in this book, but I prefer the Death on Demand series over Henrie O. "
— Kimberly, 6/3/2012
