Rosedale Investigations team has two cases this time: a missing woman and a client who wants a provenance created for an antique painting. The missing woman dies in an accident but the team doubts it was accidental. Researching the century-old painting reveals that it's considered cursed and then it's stolen.

A woman approaches Rosedale Investigations to report her husband missing. Then another woman arrives to report her husband is missing. When the team sees the photographs of James Browning, they realize it's the same guy; they have a bigamist on their hands. Detective Wayne Nichols locates Browning's car at the local airport and learns the man's been subpoenaed to provide evidence in the trial of a decade-old murder of a police officer-a shooting Browning witnessed. A second client, Hilary Broadchurch-Miller believes her brother, Grant, is being blackmailed by Aimee, his yoga instructor. He had earlier pledged to cover the cost of sending Hilary's sons to college and she's afraid he might renege on that promise. When Billy Jo interviews Aimee, she denies having an affair and is shocked when accused of blackmail. However, when Billy Jo checks the Venmo app, she discovers Grant has been giving Aimee money for two months. Something is definitely going on. This one is a page-turner with two wives who don't know about each other, a man who may or may not have a daughter, and a final 4th of July party where all the strands of the tale come together.

Lexie Lovell tosses Rosedale Investigations a real challenge when she hires them to find her brother, a brother she never existed until her father's will was read. His estate is to be split between them, but when the Rosedale Team investigates, the toddler and his mother seem to have vanished into thin air.
