There's a fine art to murder...
Hal Mulberry has long dreamt of owning the iconic painting, Buttermere
at Dawn. And now the entrepreneur has got his hands on it, he's
determined to bring it back to the Lakes where it belongs and put it on
show, turning Penrith Village Hall into a cultural hotspot - with the
painting at its heart.
Journalist Jason Brazel is delighted to get the exclusive. Even if his
mother in law, Amita, thinks he's making a fuss about an ugly piece of
modern art. But when Amita uncovers a theory that the painting is
cursed, she wonders just what Hal is bringing to their door: hex, hoax
or dirty-deal?
While the great and the good gather for the unveiling, someone's got
murder on their mind. And it's up to Jason and Amita to find who is
trying to put people out of the picture ... permanently.
