Working out of her White House Dollhouse store, Liv is well-known for her knowledge about the First Ladies.  She has historic White House settings, Civil War, and other important time periods of the Presidents’ House.   She passes on her knowledge of how the rose garden began with George Washington’s vision and up to when Jackie Kennedy remodeled them.When a New York City department store owner makes an appearance and places orders for several houses, Liv is excited.  However, the pickup day for the houses, Liv found her dead with her head inside of a dollhouse. Clues abound in embroidery and letters from Dolley Madison.  A jewelry heist from Montpelier, the Madison Estate, points to the pair of cuff links owned by Liv’s grandpa.  This is when she realizes what the killer is after. 3
