The high-end contemporary art scene drops into Santa Fe, New Mexico with ugly feuds, temperamental egos, sexual entanglements and murder.

Vincent Malone, one-time attorney and legal investigator, now down-on-his-luck shuttle driver, is right in the middle of all of the action. His employer, the Blue Door Inn, is hosting a big international artist in Santa Fe for her U. S. debut, and nothing is going smoothly.

Before long there is one dead body and plenty of suspects. Malone dusts off his investigating skills to solve this classic whodunit.
