Publisher Description
Murdered artists. Masterful forgeries. Art crime at its worst.
World renowned expert in nonverbal communication, Doctor Genevieve Lenard investigates insurance claims. Not murder. So when her boss asks her to help his acerbic friend look into the death of a young artist, her autistic mind rebels against the change.
A straightforward murder investigation quickly turns into a quagmire of stolen Eurocorps weapons, a money-laundering charity, forged art and high-ranking EU officials abusing their power. As if this isn't enough, she reluctantly teams up with an international thief whose knowledge of the art world proves invaluable.
Forced out of her predictable routines, safe environment and limited social interaction, Genevieve is thrown into being part of a team in a race to stop a ruthless killer from targeting more artists.

More than interesting
A thriller often with large gaps between action. It's a book that majors on personality and the different perspective that comes with autism. The action supported the characters . Usually it's action replacing characters. Ultimately that becomes boring. Not with this book. Well written with this unusual perspective kept you hooked. I never wanted to put the book down.
Fabulous read
Loved it. Could not put it down.
I love Mozart and regularly use his music help me 'think'. Will get all the other books in the series.
well done
Superb
I could not wait to get to the conclusion of this book, yet all the while, not wanting it to end. This fantastic story has real depth and intrigue with excellent characters and great details.
