THE BRAND-NEW MURDER MYSTERY IN THE NO. 1 BESTSELLING SERIES FROM ROB RINDER

A world-famous artist. A fatal brush with death.


At a star-studded opening night for the Royal Academy’s celebration of renowned artist Max Bruce, someone is hiding a dark secret.

As the night reaches its climax and Max addresses his admirers, the occasion takes a shocking turn when a protester runs from the crowd and sprays the artist with blue paint.

Max collapses and it soon turns out that the paint was laced with cyanide. Someone has been plotting to kill him.

All evidence points to the protestor – and newly qualified barrister Adam Green is assigned the impossible task of their defence.

But could there be others who wanted Max dead?

Gripping, believable and a cracking yarn. All the characters make you want to learn more about them. Hoping the fourth book in the series is not far away.

Great story

Once again Rinder has had two brilliant stories in one book and they were both fantastic. So many twists and turns in both, once you start you really have to stick with it till you reach the end

I find Robs books full of intrigue with plenty of twists and turns in the story. This is so believable and of its time. Look forward to hearing what happens next in the next book, which can't come quickly enough. Well done Rob and thank you.
