Clare Bast loves art and is still trying to finish her dessertation, which was derailed when she got pregnant. She’s married to Jed who comes from a rich family who is big in society, in New York. When she meets Gabriel, a curator who owns his own art museum and has a painting that Clare is interested in, she starts an affair with him. It ends six weeks later, and they go their own way. Then one night they see each other at a party, leave together to go to his house, when he’s shot dead, and the painting is stolen. She leaves, not saying anything, until the police show up asking questions. It looks like she may be the prime suspect, and she decides she has to find out who killed him and took the painting. It leads to shocking reveals, which lead to her husband being the potential killer. Clare won’t stop until she learns the truth, no matter where it takes her. A fun, twisty, soapy novel about the rich and famous, the art world, and one woman’s search for the truth. It doesn’t get any better than this.
