2022 FAPA Award Winner - Best Mystery

Scattered Legacy is book #3 in the Annalisse series.

To outsiders, the relationship between Manhattan antiquities assessor Annalisse Drury and sports car magnate Alec Zavos must look carefree and glamorous. In reality, it's a love affair regularly punctuated by treasure hunting, action-packed adventure, and the occasional dead body.

When Alec schedules an overseas trip to show Annalisse his mother's birthplace in Bari, Italy, he squeezes in the high-stakes business of divesting his family's international corporation. But things go terribly wrong as murder makes its familiar reappearance in their lives - and this time it's Alec's disgraced former CFO who's the main suspect.

Accompanied by friend and detective Bill Drake, Annalisse and Alec find themselves embroiled in a behind-closed-doors conspiracy that threatens the reputation and legacy of Alec's late father - linking him to embezzlement, extortion, and the dirty business of international crime bosses.

The search for the truth sends the trio straight into riddles, secrets, and an historic set of rosary beads. Annalisse leads Alec toward a discovery that is unthinkable, and events that will change their futures forever.
