A Matter of Trust — Diane Noble

When a group from Copper Mill returns from a tour in Italy, they bring with them a dose of international intrigue and excitement. Renee Lambert has a special souvenir -- an ornate vase -- as well as a new suitor. But just what is the ancient-looking artifact? Is it a clever copy of an antique, or is it the real deal? And why was Renee's beau so insistent that she buy and carry it home? Can Kate solve the mystery of the vase without ruining her friend's blossoming relationship? As Kate starts to uncover the truth about the souvenir, she quickly realizes she isn't alone in her search. A cast of foreign men is also hot on the trail of this apparent treasure. Meanwhile, Kate's daughter Melissa has a medical mystery, and Paul seems to be keeping secrets of his own. He asks Kate to simply trust him, but Kate isn't sure who to trust anymore. Will she be able to help her daughter in her time of need? Will Kate's faith in her husband be shaken, or will she patiently wait for answesrs? As Kate searches for the truth, she discovers that her faith in family and friends is immovable… and that her faith in God is stonger than ever.
