Description
Who knew going home could be deadly?
I will show them success. Artist Jill Madison repeats this mantra when she returns to her small hometown to restart her life. Hired to manage a new community art center, she vows to make it successful so the people of her town will have what she did not have—an education in the arts. She no sooner accepts the job than a burglar makes off with an expensive sculpture and an uninvited corpse is discovered in the basement. Even worse, the body belongs to someone Jill knew…well. Investigating what happened places Jill right in the path of a murderer.
How will she keep her job, run her first big event, and escape a killer who plans to paint her out of the picture permanently?
A Note From the Publisher

Advance Praise
“Death in a Pale Hue is alive with vibrant smalltown characters, buried secrets, and a sleuth up for the challenge of solving a murder close to home!”
— Molly MacRae, award-winning, national bestselling author of the Highland Bookshop mysteries and the Haunted Yarn Shop mysteries.
“A stolen sculpture and the discovery of a corpse threaten to prevent Jill Marsden from opening her newly created art center. A cast of zany characters make this a rollicking adventure of a spirited new series.”
—Marilyn Levinson aka Allison Brook, author of the Haunted Library series
“This was a well-written and evenly paced whodunit that I could not put down, quickly becoming a page-turner as I had to know who was doing what to whom...There were a few strategically placed twists that ratcheted up the pacing and the suspense and I couldn’t put the book down until all was said and done. Overall, this was a terrific read and I can’t wait for the next book in this pleasantly appealing new series.”
–Dru Ann Love, Author Champion, Book Advocate, MWA Raven Award Winner
