Dangerous Duplicity

​His little sister died—an unspeakable tragedy he could have prevented.  Evan Wentworth, a grief-stricken cop from El Dorado Hills, California changes careers and becomes a highly successful Jackson Pollock-like artist who falls in love with Aurora Banfield, his patron and owner of an elite Tribeca art gallery.  Prior to graduating from Parsons School of Design in New York, Evan vacations in St.-Paul-de-Vence, where he meets a young teacher, Danielle DuBois, the daughter of the owner of Gaspard Yachting, one of the largest charter yachting companies in the Riviera.  Evan finds clues that might unravel his sister’s cold case, but instead becomes embroiled in solving yet another murder, risks everything and unwittingly puts Danielle and her family in danger.  Through lavender fields, to the ancient ramparts of St.-Paul to multi-millions dollar yachts on the Côte d’Azur, DANGEROUS DUPLICITY reminds readers why murder, justice, the power of love and the search for redemption can have dire consequences.

Praise:  “Dangerous Duplicity is a riveting contemporary romantic suspense novel.  Her believable, but flawed, characters captivated me with this layered story of a tormented young man determined to solve a murder that has haunted him for many years, even if it means keeping secrets from the woman he loves and possibly losing her.”…Linda Townsdin, author of the Spirit Lake Mystery Series
