MESSAGE IN MALLORCA A Grace Whitmore MysteryRetired English teacher Grace Whitmore has come to Mallorca for nothing more than sun, solitude, and a change of scenery. But on her very first night in a rented finca outside Palma, a desperate, unsigned note slides beneath her door-and an ordinary holiday becomes something else entirely.A young woman has vanished. A note begs Grace to trust no one, not even the police. And beneath the golden light and lazy cafés of village life lies a secret buried for a century and a half: a fortune in monastery gold, hidden by four families sworn to guard it-and a betrayal dark enough to still be worth killing for.As Grace follows a trail from abandoned fincas to hidden sea caves, from a reclusive scholar's archive to a noble family's locked chapel, she uncovers a conspiracy of kidnapping, corruption, and inherited vengeance that reaches from a mountain village all the way to Montevideo. With a police inspector who isn't sure who he can trust, and an enemy who always seems to be one step ahead, Grace must use the one skill three decades in the classroom taught her best: how to read between the lines before it's too late.Because someone in Mallorca has waited generations for justice. And they will not let an Englishwoman's curiosity stand in their way.A slow-burn mystery of old grudges, buried treasure, and one unlikely investigator who proves that the sharpest eyes in the room often belong to the person everyone assumes is simply there to relax.
