Tajomstvo chyžnej
SKRYTÝ POKLAD. LÚPEŽ V HOTELI. NA SCÉNU
PRICHÁDZA CHYŽNÁ MOLLY,
KTORÁ VYRIEŠI KAŽDÚ ZÁHADU...
V živote Molly Grayovej dochádza k zmenám, o akých sa jej nikdy nesnívalo. Túto rešpektovanú, no
svojráznu chyžnú len nedávno povýšili na manažérku špeciálnych podujatí v luxusnom hoteli
Regency Grand a čakajú ju dve radostné udalosti – natáčanie populárnej televíznej relácie
o starožitnostiach Skryté poklady a vysnívaná svadba s milovaným Juanom Manuelom.
Molly prinesie niekoľko starých predmetov po svojej starkej do živého vysielania v hotelovej čajovni.
Prekvapivo sa ukáže, že medzi týmito pamiatkami sa nachádza aj vzácne Fabergého vajce v hodnote
niekoľkých miliónov dolárov. Molly sa cez noc stane senzáciou a prípravy na predaj neoceniteľného
pokladu vyvolajú mediálne šialenstvo. V deň aukcie však klenot zmizne a Molly s priateľmi sa ocitnú
v centre najodvážnejšej lúpeže umeleckého predmetu posledných desaťročí.
Kľúč k záhade sa ukrýva v minulosti, v dávno zabudnutom denníku Mollinej starkej. Molly sa odrazu
dozvedá o jej tajomstvách – o tom, že sa narodila do zámožnej rodiny, no rodičia jej bránili v láske
k chudobnému mladíkovi. Ako to už býva, najväčšou láskou života starkej bol niekto, koho Molly
pravdepodobne pozná...
Tajomstvo chyžnej je očarujúcim finále tejto série detektívok. Predstavuje zaujímavú zmes tajomstva
z dávnej histórie a príbeh neopakovateľnej lásky
