Riddle of the Jeweled Cipher

History is written by the living. But the dead have their own stories to tell. Pucci Riddle has built a career as a critic and investigator, uncovering the hidden histories of the world's finest liquors. But when a jeweled cipher is discovered inside a locket from the infamous Cheapside Hoard, her rare gift for seeing ghosts draws her into a centuries-old mystery-and far more than she ever imagined. Pucci follows the trail to Scotland, where ancient castles rise from the mist, rugged coastlines whisper of forgotten legends, and ancient ruins guard their secrets. What begins as a simple writing assignment quickly spirals into a treacherous hunt for an artifact tied to the Knights Templar, Rosslyn Chapel, and the mystical powers of King Solomon. As spectral voices whisper cryptic clues, Pucci realizes she's not the only one searching for the truth. An unseen enemy will stop at nothing to reclaim the cipher and unlock an ancient power lost to time. With the help of her friends and Detective Olan Lathen-a man whose investigative instincts are as sharp as his buried connection to this mystery-Pucci must decipher an ancient code, evade ruthless adversaries, and unravel the truth ... before the Shadow Man claims another victim.
