About this audiobook
Since she went straight, Annie Kincaid's been applying her genius for fine art forgery to her own faux finishing business in San Francisco. She hasn't seen the inside of a jail cell since she was seventeen, although sometimes it takes all of her arts-fine or otherwise-to keep it that way . . .
Annie knows that art security can be inadequate, but it's crazy to think that an Old Master painting could be hanging unguarded in the local columbarium where she's doing restoration work. Still, when she gets a tip that the chapel's copy of Raphael's exquisite La Fornarina might be the real thing, Annie has to take a look. And when she runs into a certain sexy art thief on the premises, alarm bells go off in her head as well as her heart.
Tired of being an art world pariah, Annie hopes that if she can help return the masterpiece to Italy, she'll finally be redeemed. But when murder enters the picture, Annie realizes that it won't be so easy to put things at the cemetery to rest . . .

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Either the authors are getting better or I am going soft. This was the best one yet in the series. Pete, Annie's Bosnian friend speaks an hysterical form of English malapropism.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Cute, never especially challenging mystery about forger-turned-faux finisher Annie Kincaid. Annie's reasons for not going to the police aren't especially plausible, but (as with the Stephanie Plum books), the largest suspension of disbelief is required to believe that the ditsy, average-looking Annie could hook two such smokin' hot men.
