It was a totally predictable snoozer outside of the Grady plot thread. That popped in and out quickly and overlooked one glaring legal point observed by another reviewer. I don't know much about these particular circumstances, but I do know it was a serious crime and it would not have been unthinkable for the bad guys to kill our heroes to avoid detection. But that wouldn't fit the story. Also I don't buy that they had enough to go on to find the place even with a helicopter. The means found to restore the relics was a little more sentimental than the crime angle. I'm very glad the writers skipped any court scenes. The way it was done was both effective and moved the story along.

I'm not a Cindy Busby fan and she didn't score any points with me here. There was no chemistry with David Gridley, despite their having a lot of screen time together.

I thought the dialog was flat. Also the story had strong similarities to at least one other Hallmark movie and maybe a couple. These included the handsome guide and his grandparent supplying clues to their quest.

If scenery is enough to satisfy you as a viewer, then this one might do it for you.
