RESTRIKE by Reba White Williams.

Published Delos Fiction 2013. First in the Coleman and Dinah Greene series

My fiction collaborator came to stay in mid July after our National annual SF Convention and gifted me with this book. It’s an excellent example of American cosy mystery, no graphic sex, very well-written, very interesting background by an author who really does know what she’s talking about, and engrossing characters. Cousins Coleman and Dinah Greene are both involved in the art world. Dinah with her art gallery, and Coleman with the art magazine she owns and edits.

And there’s a new man in town (New York) he’s started a Print Museum and he’s buying prints for it, price no object. Provenence of some of his recent purchases however is doubtful, could they be fakes or stolen? Both cousins think so and set out to discover the truth, finding along the way, untrustworthy people, several murders, some very devious financial dealings, and startling episodes in her family history about which Colemen knew nothing.

This was a good book, a great start to a possible series, and I’ll be watching out for book two Fatal Impressions which gives promise of being another excellent read. Recommended.
