From a celebrated artist, a shocking and suspenseful first novel set in the New York City art world. Is to the art world what Kathy Reichs is to forensic pathology and what Linda Fairstein is to the DA's office.
Bizarre, ritualistic murders are shattering the New York art world, and only one person can stop them. It's been a decade since Kate McKinnon traded her cop badge for a Ph.D. in art history, exchanged a row house in Queens for a penthouse on Central Park, and hosted a PBS television series based on her own bestselling book. Her life, you could say, is a dream.
But that dream is about to become a nightmare . . .
A young artist whom Kate has mentored from childhood is brutally murdered, and the killer starts communicating with Kate through a series of bizarre art references that only she can decipher. The NYPD has no choice but to bring her on as a consultant, so Kate is hurtled back into her old dark cop's universe as she desperately tries to decipher the madman's increasingly arcane clues. The murders mount up and become more and more vicious as the 'death artist' moves ever closer to Kate - his ultimate prize.
