What do you give the man who has everything?
A cold-blooded mystery he can't resist.
Retired homicide detective Mac Faraday is back at his sprawling Deep Creek Lake estate, still adjusting to his unimaginable fortune inherited from mystery legend Robin Spencer. But when a long-lost masterpiece-tied to a brutal unsolved murder-lands in his hands as part of yet another jaw-dropping bequest, Mac can't walk away.
Nearly a decade ago, rising artist Ilysa Ramsay unveiled her greatest work... only to be found dead in her lakeside studio hours later. The painting vanished that night, presumed stolen forever. Now it's resurfaced, whispering secrets of art forgery, jealousy, and deadly greed. Mac dives in, determined to uncover who killed the artist and why the canvas is worth killing for-again.
Meanwhile, in Pittsburgh, former JAG lawyer Joshua Thornton takes on the impossible: clearing one murder from a convicted serial killer's tally. Teaming with sharp, no-nonsense detective Cameron Gates, they chase a Jane Doe victim whose death doesn't fit the pattern. What starts as a favor spirals into a dangerous game where someone is desperate to keep the truth buried.
Two separate cases. Two brilliant investigators. One explosive collision course.
As clues converge on Deep Creek Lake, Mac, Joshua, and Cameron race to unmask a killer with a chilling talent for deception-and murder. With Gnarly the irrepressible German Shepherd stirring up trouble (and providing comic relief), the stakes skyrocket in this twisty, fast-paced thriller full of surprises, romance, and the kind of clever sleuthing fans crave.
If you love intricate puzzles, charismatic characters, laugh-out-loud moments amid the suspense, and that satisfying aha! payoff, Shades of Murder delivers. Dive back into the Mac Faraday world-where wealth buys a lot... but justice comes at a deadly price.
