"FIND THE CORSET " A dying corset maker's last words send Lacey Smithsonian across the sea on a high-stakes scavenger hunt-and a race against the old woman's killer. Magda Rousseau's dark family secret: Her grandfather had stolen the jewel-filled corset of a dead Romanov princess. Who wouldn't kill for it? The fabled lost corset would be the find-and the fashion story-of the century. For Lacey this treasure hunt also means a trip to Paris, the City of Light, and a break from her romantic woes. "Bloody thread, knock 'em dead " Magda's favorite saying, a theatre costumer's good-luck wish. If the seamstress pricks her finger sewing a costume, her drop of blood ensures the play's success. But murder ends Magda's luck, and her dream of finding the legendary corset. Lacey must follow a twisted thread of clues across two continents, tangling with jewel thieves, spies, and her fellow treasure hunters. But will Magda's "bloody thread" finally lead her to the fabulous lost corset? Or bring her face to face with a killer?
