Stroke of Death by Dale MayerMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Well-known artist Cayce is widely respected in the art world but that has unfortunately attracted the wrong kind of attention as she now has forgers copycats and of course enemies. However, when her best friend and favourite model is murdered and the masterpiece painter on her skin is removed she knows that there is an art collector whos is completely different. Whilst Detective Richard Henderson doesn't know much at all about art, he does know what he likes and artist Cayce is what fascinates him the most. Hi might understand that her work contains an element of something extraordinary, he just doesn’t know what that is exactly or how she embodies it in her creative works of art. When other models show up dead with more sections of skin missing both Cayce and Richard realise that it is not just another art - it is also about her soul. Can they find out who it is before more models die and Cayce is one of the victims too, plus can they keep a lid on their growing attraction so they can concentrate on the case?
Wow, I loved this story. It was so dramatic and I found myself trying to work out who the murderer was as I read along with the story. I have to admit I was convinced it was one person when it actually turned out to be someone completely different. I loved the way the relationship between Cayce and Richard developed and that they became good friends far before they became something more. I liked the subtle involvement of some central characters in the Psychic Visions series. Well written, easy to read and understand I was seriously addicted to the story. Definitely recommended.
