Murder and Masterpieces

A Sadie Stewart Cozy Mystery

By: L.B. Dayton

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

A Santa Fe Getaway Turns Deadly. A Murder That Refuses to Stay Framed. And a Masterpiece Built on Betrayal.

Gallery owner Sadie Stewart heads to Santa Fe for sunshine, art, and a well earned escape with her friends Daniel and Quincy. Leaving her Chicago gallery behind, she plans to soak up inspiration, enjoy good food, and avoid dead bodies for once.

That plan shatters when Sadie reconnects with a fellow gallery owner and a dead body is discovered next door. Curiosity takes over, and Sadie’s knack for spotting what does not belong pulls her straight into the mystery.

With Daniel’s steady logic and Quincy’s sharp observations, Sadie navigates a colorful cast of suspects. A rival gallery owner clinging tightly to her spotless image. A smooth talking art dealer who knows far too much about everyone’s business. Each has a connection to the victim, and each smiles a little too brightly when questioned.

Then Quincy vanishes.

As lies surface and trust fractures, Sadie realizes someone is turning the investigation into a carefully staged illusion.

If she does not uncover the truth in time, the final reveal could cost her far more than a vacation.
