The Collector

As in Teeter-Totter between Lust and Murder, this novel explores the possible links between some of the rich elites and criminal elements within the tri-state area surrounding NYC. The artworks involved are from a heist in Boston, and their use as collateral for the collector's terrible business is a surprise to the two detectives. Can they prove their case against him? Can they recover the paintings?

(Two minor characters, Scotland Yard Art and Antiques Inspector Esther Brookstone, and Interpol agent Bastiann van Coevorden, from Aristocrats and Assassins, help the two detectives on this case. Look for them both in Rembrandt's Angel, an offshoot of this series.)
