Murder, missing antiques, and a snowbound Scottish castle set the stage for another irresistible mystery in The Antique Hunter's Murder at the Castle, the third installment in C. L. Miller's internationally bestselling Antique Hunter Series.

When a trusted member of the Lockwood Antique Hunter's Agency vanishes while tracking an art forger in the remote Scottish Borders, Freya Lockwood and her beloved Aunt Carole race north to uncover what happened. Instead of finding answers, they arrive at an isolated castle where a local laird has been murdered, an invaluable silver collection has disappeared, and their missing colleague has become the prime suspect.

With a fierce snowstorm trapping everyone inside the castle walls, Freya and Carole must untangle a web of deception, family secrets, and stolen treasures before the killer strikes again. As the storm closes in, every clue leads to another mystery—and time is running out to save their friend.

Perfectly blending cozy mystery, amateur sleuthing, and the fascinating world of antiques, The Antique Hunter's Murder at the Castle delivers charming characters, atmospheric settings, and a cleverly crafted whodunit that will keep readers guessing until the final page.
