Dead skeevy art collector. Vengeful ex-girlfriend(s). and a suspect on the run. *Book Two can be read as a stand-alone, but does contain spoilers for Book One* Having barely escaped Bay City alive, Kirby is ready for il dolce far niente in a quaint Sicilian town, hidden far away from murderers, the FBI, and her ex-girlfriend's mafia family... with the occasional art heist here and there to keep her busy. But Kirby gets more than what she bargained for when she runs into two of her ex-girlfriends at an art opening. One is seeking Russian intel; the other is out for blood. Caught in a deadly love triangle, Kirby flees from the gallery to the home of her new handler, an art collector who has ties to the Russian Bratva. But by morning, Kirby is waking up beneath an empty wall where a Caravaggio painting had been hanging and next to her in bed is a cold, bloody body. With Interpol hot on her trail, Kirby will have to rely on her vengeful ex-girlfriends to help her find out the truth of what happened that night. But Kirby soon learns, finding a killer takes a killer. And deadly desire will either bring them all together---or tear them apart. Heads will roll in this Skullduggery sequel. #ONC2024 #Wattys2025

"Seriously? You really thought I would accept you? I'm way too out of your league, retreat from talking to me and don't come near me, you're a vampire" She returned to being the killer eyed girl that I first met in an instant. Said by the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in my entire life, a goddess that I don't know why chose to stay in this messy earth. And she rejected me, well why would a perfect girl like her accept me right? but at least I tried than do nothing at all and regret it forever. "Bu...but I'm not a vampire!" I exclaimed in frustration. Seriously? That's the reason why she rejected me? I asked myself. That's the most ridiculous thing that I ever heard as an excuse for rejecting someone. "Well, you do look like one and I hate vamps" she argued before rolling her beautiful eyes at me. I want to argue but she didn't give me the chance by walking away, leaving me astounded.
