Having been widowed in the First World War, Elizabeth Fairchild lives a quiet life at the home of her wealthy parents in genteel Oak Park Village, Illinois. Although she does her best to avoid emotional entanglements, determined never to be hurt again, Elizabeth forms a close friendship with gentle Mr Anthony, who owns the local antiques store. But tragedy strikes when Mr Anthony is found stabbed to death in the alley behind his shop. Why would anyone murder a mild-mannered antiques dealer who simply loved beautiful things? A robbery gone wrong? A gangland execution? Or could it have something to do with the mysterious customer who bought a gold pocket watch from Mr Anthony on the day he died? When one of her father's oldest friends is accused of the crime, Elizabeth determines to expose the real killer. But her investigations soon attract unwelcome attention. With gangsters moving into the neighbourhood from nearby Chicago, Oak Park is no longer the safe haven it once was. Could Elizabeth be seriously out of her depth?"--Publisher. 650 0 $a Widows $z Chicago $z Chicago $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Antique dealers $x Crimes against $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $z Chicago $z Chicago $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Gangsters $z Illinois $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Malicious accusation $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Nineteen twenties $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Chicago (Ill.) $v Fiction. 655 0 $a Detective and mystery stories. 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726581 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 800 1 $a Dams, Jeanne M. $t Oak Park Village mystery ; $v 1. 941 $a 11 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314023224.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010030148.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20230307010413.0 952 $l WQPA215 $d 20221109173514.0 952 $l XAPE737 $d 20220906015010.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20220802013539.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20220802010617.0 952 $l KWPE446 $d 20220607013555.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220519010145.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20220330010221.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20220302010624.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=59140B00992D11EC82317EFE47ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
