It's the summer before her junior year in college, and Racheal O'Brien's grandmother has invited her to go to Great Britain with her to see London and her Grandmother's country home. Sounds simple, right? Well, nothing in Rachael's life is ever that simple is it. She can take a friend with her but who will she take? Her room mates will be disappointed if she chooses only one of them, her Grandmother wouldn't approve if she took a boyfriend, so she decides to take her best guy friend who is gay. Someone should have warned him what he is getting into.Rachael is also trying to get a scholarship so her dad won't have to continue paying out-of-state tuition for her college expenses. But there is this wierd man that keeps turning up where ever she goes and he is on the committee of people who choose the scholarship recipient. He is very interested, to an upsetting degree, in the antique clamshell pin her grandmother inherited from an old friend, Walzy. And what is going on with the police and Rachael's grandmother? Does she have a shady history? Maybe she was an art thief in her younger days and has something to hide.You have to read the book to find out how it all works out.I hope there will be more books in this series since Rachael has two more years of college and more if she goes to grad school. She always finds trouble where ever she goes and has a great time getting out of the predicaments she stumbles upon.
