Counterfeit Conspiracies: Bodies of Art Mysteries #1
About this ebook
Laurel Beacham grew up in wealth and society—until her grandfather died and her father gambled away the family fortune. Now with more pedigree than trust fund, she is the premier art recovery expert for museums that need to stay one step ahead of international thieves. Her latest assignment pits her against a mystery man, Jack Hawkes, who is not only her equal with blue bloods, but also seems to know where all the bodies are buried. Suddenly Laurel is racing against time to find a priceless art object before the enemy does, locate a missing art world compatriot with crucial information, and decide whether or not she wants to disentangle herself from this new male nemesis, Jack, who seems to know too much about her and her business.
"It's Da Vinci Code meets Janet Evanovich's The Heist! Counterfeit Conspiracies is a suspenseful thrill ride through the European villas, priceless masterpieces, and the dark, modern world of organized art crime. Romance, intrigue, and breathtaking descriptions – this book has it all!"

About the author
Ritter Ames is the USA Today Bestselling author of the Organized Mysteries and the Bodies of Art Mysteries, both published by Gemma Halliday Publishing. When she's not writing or brainstorming new mysteries Ritter is usually trying to get her favorite yellow lab to stay of the pond or keep her grouchy black cat from trying to give the dog away on Freecycle. Ritter would love to live on a boat and write from far flung locations around the globe, but the dog would constantly have to be fished from the water, and her husband and cat would just complain endlessly about the dog's smell, so staying on land seems to be the only good option to keep her sanity and not get sidetracked from writing.
