The Balloon Man (Sarah Kelling and Max Bittersohn Mysteries)

Sarah Kelling has always delighted in the fact that her husband Max Bittersohn's family embraced her with warm and welcoming arms. To repay their kindness, she throws Max's nephew a glorious wedding on her family's sprawling seaside estate. But then, what starts as the perfect day for a marriage soon deteriorates into a multi-pronged disaster. First, Max is knocked unconscious by someone looking to steal the bride's gold and ruby necklace. Then, a hot air balloon crashes into the tent, leaving a corpse in its wake. And, to add insult to injury, someone attempts to steal a vintage Rolls. It will take all of Max's formidable skills as the world's greatest expert on art theft to get to the bottom of these nuptials-turned-nasty.
