A Dangerous Talent by Charlotte Elkins and Aaron Elkins
An Alix London Mystery
Publisher: Thomas & Mercer
About A Dangerous Talent (from the publisher): Alix London has a promising career as an art consultant, a sumptuous condo in Seattle’s toniest neighborhood, a gorgeous figure, and a presence that exudes Ivy League breeding and old money. She has it all … or does she? Only Alix knows that the image she presents to the world is a carefully constructed mirage that veils an embarrassing truth.
A brilliant, once-promising art student, the daughter of a prominent New York art conservator, her world was left in ruins when her father went to prison for art forgery. Now a Harvard dropout with an emptied bank account, she is languishing in a career that has produced little more than a lucky house-sitting gig.
But all of that changes when Alix meets Christine Lemay, a novice art collector with money to burn and a hot tip on a recently discovered painting by American master Georgia O’Keeffe. Chris hires Alix to perform the authentication, an assignment that finally could launch Alix into the big leagues. But soon after her arrival in Santa Fe, she finds herself tangled up in a web of forgery, deceit — and murder.
Anxious to avoid becoming the next victim, she teams up with FBI Special Agent Ted Ellesworth — and gets a little unlikely help from her roguish father — to uncover the truth behind the painting and those who would kill to have it.
Important Note: Amazon.com updates its Kindle book deal every day at approximately midnight PT. The title referenced above is available at a discounted price for Tuesday, March 27, 2012 only.
