When North Carolina
antique dealer Abigail
Timerlake makes a bid of
$150.99 on a truly awful copy of Van Gogh's "The
Starry Night," she's just trying to win Mana's
approval by supporting the church auction.
Hopefully, she'll make her money back on the
beautiful gold antique frame. Little does she expect
she's bought herself a fortune...and a ton of trouble.
When her ex-boyfriend shows up and offers ten
bucks for the ugly "Starry Night," Abby pops the frame and is
stunned to discover hidden behind the faux Van Gogh canvas a
multi-million dollar lost art treasure. Suddenly she's a popular lady in
hear old hometown, and her first visit is from Gilbert Sweeney, her
schoolyard sweetheart (according to him), who claims the family's
painting was donated by mistake. But social calls quickly turn from
nice to nasty as it's revealed that the mysterious masterpiece
conceals a dark and deadly past and some modern-day misconduct
that threatens to rock the Rock HIll social structure to its core.
Someone apparently thinks the art is worth killing for, and Abby
knows she better get to the bootom of the secret scandal and
multiple murders before she ends up buried six feet under a starry
night.
