When Noelle disappears, the Chief of Police thinks Sophie might be the culprit. Will Sophie and Sam find out what really happened? Or will Sophie face a life in prison, complete with orange (no!) jumpsuits, catfights with sporks, and no access to Sephora? Find out in THE ROSE QUEEN...

Physical description: Petite, slender, elderly. Loves chocolate.
Last seen: Hester Klein's boarding house, Chicago, Illinois, April 1947
Comments: Trying to locate someone who has been missing for over fifty years is a challenge for any private investigator. But for Sophie and Sam, the real challenge is trying to figure out whether Professor Leo Shattenberg is also a long-lost relative... without exposing who they really are. Will Sophie and Sam crack the case? Will Leo's adorable son fall for Sam --- who might be his cousin-and thus end up on the Jerry Springer show? Will Sophie survive her date with Pete Teagarden, at a Chinese restaurant in a former International House of Pancakes? Find out in THE CHOCOLATE LOVER...
