Plunge into the Depths of the Illicit Art World – Where Stolen Treasures and Family Secrets Lead to Deception, Betrayal, and Murder
29 March 2024 - 2:00AM
Liliane Ashe is an accomplished art sleuth with dual quests:
tracking stolen art and solving the mystery of her missing mother.
When her past comes calling, in the form of Interpol Agent
Victor Aldwyn, Liliane is lured into an explosive case that
catapults her from the tranquil mountains of New Mexico into
London’s criminal underbelly. As Liliane and Victor probe beneath
the surface of a prestigious art gallery suspected of shady
dealings, they unearth a clandestine and ruthless empire stretching
from the cobbled streets of Europe to the jungles of Southeast Asia
and beyond.
A string of murders linked to yet more art heists makes one
thing clear: these players will stop at nothing to protect their
empire and their secrets. And when Liliane crosses paths with the
maniacal ringleader, she discovers two more things: his past is
disturbingly entwined with her own, and she has become his latest
obsession.
Relics Torn is an international thriller that delivers
spine-tingling suspense and heart-pounding action, while also
painting a complex portrait of moral ambiguity within the
underground antiquities trade. It’s a great choice for art
enthusiasts, mystery lovers, and fans of books like The DaVinci
Code, The Rembrandt Affair, and The Eight.
Relics Torn is available for purchase online at Amazon.com and
Barnes and Noble.com. For more information about the author, please
