Serena Jones has a passion for recovering lost and stolen art–one that’s surpassed only by her zeal to uncover the truth about the art thief who murdered her grandfather. She’s joined the FBI Art Crime Team with the secret hope that one of her cases will lead to his killer. Now, despite her mother’s pleas to do something safer–like get married–Serena’s learning how to go undercover to catch … thieves and black market traders.
When a local museum discovers an irreplaceable Monet missing, Jones leaps into action. The clues point in different directions, and her boss orders her to cease investigating her most promising suspect. But determined to solve the case and perhaps discover another clue in her grandfather’s murder, she pushes ahead, regardless of the danger.
With spunk, humor, and plenty of heart-stopping moments, Sandra Orchard gives readers an exciting string of cases to crack and a character they’ll love to watch solve them.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I immediately ordered it in paperback and had it sent to my daughter because I thought she’d enjoy it, too, and then I ordered the next two in the series for my kindle. As another reviewer stated, Orchard reminds me of Janet Evanovich and Serena is rather like Stephanie Plum, albeit she has a degree, knows her art, and works for the FBI. Quirky characters and a good read
