Publisher's summary

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.

Excellent

The story is great, and held my attention. However, it was the narrator’s spot-on accents that drew me in. Having grown up in London, I was effectively gobsmacked at the narrator’s 100% accurate portrayal of Smithy’s central London accent. It was so perfectly nuanced, that I literally stopped what I was doing to listen, mouth agape, the laughed in utter astonishment. It was brilliant.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
