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.

Gauguin Connection
Overall a good book. First 100 pages or so, where very hard to get into, and most were a waste and did not really add to the overall story. Book really picked up with the introduction of Colin and Vinny. Both added so much to the story.
Excellent!
Loved this book! Loved the characters too! Believable and stayed on course, flowed nicely, kept me intrigued. Many facets of art, personalities, and humanity. Looking forward to reading more books from Estelle Ryan. Thank you for offering a peek into what you offer as a wonderful writer for free!
Wonderful
This is the best book I've read in quite a while, and I read a LOT. The story line is complicated and the relationship between the players is amazing. I loved the growth of all the characters as the story progressed. Can't wait to read the next one in the series.
