Synopsis

It takes more than three charms to commit murder.When an old childhood friend comes to Henri asking for help in solving his parents' murders, Henri agrees immediately. He knows this case is not going to be easy. Mr. and Mrs. Atwood's bodies had been found magically posed to mimic a statue, and the investigator in charge ruled it a murder-suicide. Which is simply not feasible according to the Atwood children.Aware this is a high society case and all attention will be on them, the team makes their way out to the Atwoods' vacation home. Upon arrival, Jamie and Henri are horrified to find most of the trace evidence destroyed by incompetence, the bodies unpreserved, and the case file a single page of notes. To top it all off, the local police force wants nothing more than to see them fail.Add in a string of suspicious burglaries, compromised wards, arson, and a suspect who will do anything to keep the truth under wraps, and Jamie and Henri are ready to commit murder themselves.
