Fatal Impressions by Reba White Williams Review

Book Description


Coleman and Dinah Greene are making names for themselves in the art world. Coleman`s magazine publishing empire is growing and Dinah`s print gallery is gaining traction. In fact, Dinah has just won the contract to select, buy, and hang art in the New York office of the management consultants Davidson, Douglas, Danbury & Weeks – a major coup that will generate The Greene Gallery`s first big profits. However, when Dinah goes to DDD&W to begin work, she discovers a corporate culture unlike anything she`s ever encountered before. There are suggestions of improprieties everywhere, including missing art worth a fortune. And when two DDD&W staff members are discovered murdered, Dinah and Coleman find themselves swept into the heart of another mystery. Revealing the murderer will be no easy task...but first Dinah needs to clear her own name from the suspect list.

My Review:
They say that art imitates life. However what if art imitates death? Dinah soon finds out how art can affect life, especially stolen art. It was interesting to read when everyone was suspect. I did not know who the killer was, but I needed to find out. The ending was great and I love a good mystery. I am giving this book a 4/5. I was given a copy to review from The Story Plant, however all opinions are my own.
