<DIV><b>Long-lost relatives and priceless jewels turn a wedding upside down</b></div><DIV><BR>For all the Kellings&rsquo; quirks, no other family in Boston is more adept at throwing a wedding. So when Max Bittersohn&rsquo;s wife, Sarah Kelling, offers to organize his nephew&rsquo;s nuptials, Max is smart enough to stay out of her way. But when the art-fraud investigator stumbles onto a family mystery, he is drawn into something far more serious than the question of who will catch the bouquet.</div><DIV>&#160;</div><DIV>Stolen years earlier, the priceless Kelling jewels were last seen in Amsterdam, so how did they end up among the wedding gifts? Max is trying to answer that question when a talkative burglar wallops him with a shovel in a failed attempt to rip off the rubies. Then, as the reception winds down, a hot-air balloon lands on the wedding tent, spilling out the Zickerys, a branch of the Kelling clan who prove even odder than the original strain. Family weddings are never easy, but for Max Bittersohn, this one could be murder.</div>
