From the author of A Dangerous Duet comes the next book in her Victorian mystery series, this time following a daring female painter and the Scotland Yard detective who is investigating her brother's suspicious death.


A young painter digs beneath the veneer of Victorian London's art world to learn the truth behind her brother's murder...

Edwin is dead. That's what Inspector Matthew Hallam of Scotland Yard tells Annabel Rowe when she discovers him searching her brother's flat for clues. While the news is shocking, Annabel can't say it's wholly unexpected, given Edwin's past as a dissolute risk-taker and art forger, although he swore he'd reformed. After years spent blaming his reckless behavior for their parents' deaths, Annabel is now faced with the question of who murdered him--because Edwin's death was both violent and deliberate. A valuable French painting he'd been restoring for an auction house is missing from his studio: find the painting, find the murderer. But the owner of the artwork claims it was destroyed in a warehouse fire years ago.

As a painter at the prestigious Slade School of Art and as Edwin's closest relative, Annabel makes the case that she is crucial to Matthew's investigation. But in their search for the painting, Matthew and Annabel trace a path of deceit and viciousness that reaches far beyond the elegant rooms of the auction house, into an underworld of politics, corruption, and secrets someone will kill to keep.

Great quality, very versatile
Size: 6 Panel-132‘’Wide, Color: Beige, Size: 6 Panel-132‘’Wide, Color: Beige
I'm very pleased with this item. It was not complicated to assemble but some items required dexterity and strength. The fabric panels are nice and tight and that's partly why it's a little hard to get that final screw in. I'm very pleased with the legs and the wheels. The metal components are nicely finished and feel substantial and endurable. I can easily fold this so many different ways… I can minimize the number of panels that are seen if desired and it can be straight or accordion. It's very stable which was hugely important to me because I'm fostering many many cats. It's not cheap looking and the light color fabric allows enough light to pass through that it doesn't darken the room substantially. I think the price was very reasonable

Good purchase
Size: 4 Panel-88‘’Wide, Color: Black
Very easy to assemble. Good quality. The material is thick enough to block the light and gives much needed privacy.

Storage may be a problem
Size: 4 Panel-88‘’Wide, Color: Black
Worked as expected however storing it was not so easy. The feet did not collapse one over the other but provide privacy.
