A Beautiful Crime by Christopher Bollen

Within the magical city of New York, there are many great works of art to admire, powerful men and those who want to be. Within the floating city of magic and mystery that is Venice there are great works of art to be admired, rich and powerful men and two from New York that want to be. The author's love of Venice and its wonders shine through like the morning mist off the canals to reveal a scene of violence and calculating greed. Clay and Nick make an unusual couple and as their scheme and dishonesty progresses you wonder if they will remain intact or if they will start believing their own lies. Beautifully written with unassuming villains bent on revenge. This will appeal to fans of THE TALENTED MR. RIPLEY, LEADING MEN and LADDER TO THE SKY.
