‘Oh!’ Penny’s gasp sounded almost like a scream. ‘Ivy . . .’ She pointed, her finger quivering. ‘Look! ’
Feeling heavy with dread, Ivy turned . . .
‘Oh, no,’ she whispered.
The display case she’d closed only a few moments ago hung open . . . and the velvet hanger was empty.
Tessa’s priceless pashmina had been stolen!

Aha. Ivy grinned. She didn’t need her special vampire hearing to know that the voice on the other end was Olivia’s movie star boyfriend, Jackson Caulfield.
