To Steal a Weeping Widow
Someone stole the Weeping Widow. The priceless artwork is gone, ripped from its place on the wall and leaving only broken glass behind. The pride of Whitehill Museum and Art Gallery fell victim to heists in the night, and the museum is determined to find the painting and nail the culprit. She's been labelled the main suspect after being found at the scene of the crime. He's been hired to protect Whitehill and keep the rest of the art safe. Both with a job to do at the museum, and both determined to fix broken reputations. But the biggest question of all haunts the exhibits they roam: who stole the Weeping Widow? They painted her the villain. He's learning art is open for interpretation. -------------------------- "Art is to be seen, not touched." His breath curled next to my ear. "But I'd do anything to touch you." "Are you saying I'm art?" My heart knew no limit as it pulsed in my throat, right where his lips began to hover. "As beautiful as what hangs in the Louvre, and just as forbidden to touch." Disclaimer: all works depicted above the chapters are real works, and some real works are mentioned throughout.

The Crystal Muse
In the near future, the city of Boston is recovering from a devastating two-year riot. To lure people and business back to the reconstructing city, the Museum of Fine Arts hosts a Grand Reopening party. The principal attraction: the unveiling of the Crystal Muse, a clearly priceless and beautiful statue that has just been added to the collection...which is brazenly stolen by violent and murderous thugs less than half an hour after it is introduced to the terrorized attendees. Assigned to the case is the Massachusetts State Police Special Operations & Investigations Unit, a squad of SWAT-trained detectives born out of the violence of the riot. Led by Detective Lieutenant Scott Dillard and equipped with the most advanced gear available, the investigation takes them from the battle-scarred streets of Boston to the affluent suburbs of Weston and Barnstable, from the history-soaked environs of Salem to the outskirts of the Berkshires where resentment over the riot still festers. Since the trail for stolen artwork tends to go cold very quickly until the statute of limitations runs out, and since there's no statute of limitations on the attendant felony murder charge, Dillard cannot recover the Crystal Muse or apprehend the perpetrators fast enough for the politicians' liking.Complete
