The Fabergé Flute in Bloomington, MN

Amateur flutist and English teacher Sallie Dunbar needs to get away. Not only is her life in a rut, the events of a frustrating school day have also pushed her to the limits. She impulsively drains her meager savings to spend Thanksgiving week at a music convention in 1980s London. Anticipating a relaxing trip filled with sightseeing and perhaps a romantic fling, Sallie unwittingly becomes a killer's target. A fabulous jeweled flute reputed to possess healing powers has gone missing. And someone is willing to kill to get it back. Can Sallie evade a killer's clutches? Or will she end up as just another crime statistic?
