Description
Nightmare in the Attic takes place in the wine country in Napa
Valley, California. It is the story of a brilliant young artist
turned forger by impatience and greed. When a famous sculptor is
found dead (accident or murder?), Harriet becomes involved. At
first she gets side-tracked by several other players who turn out
to be benign, however, beyond their penchant for money. During the
course of Harriet's investigation a number of gruesome and
mysterious murders are committed. When she finds herself trapped in
the attic of a house by whom she thinks of as the murderer and a
fire she herself has started, fueled by priceless paintings, much
of the conundrum becomes clear; but it isn't until she uses her
intuition that she finally unmasks the killer--someone she never
suspected.
