📕My Review

This book really appealed to me as I'm a sucker for a haunted painting story (Graham Masterton's Family Portrait being a particular favourite) and it didn't disappoint. Thoroughly enjoyable. I hope to read more by this author.

📗The Blurb

Hugo Montague was a man of boundless cruelty that lived on beyond his mortal days. The portrait that he commissioned has hung on many walls, but has always overseen tragedy and murder.

The painting was long thought destroyed in a fire, but now there are those desperate to find the portrait if it still exists.

Travis Parker was an insurance investigator, but now he is a widower trapped within his own pain and broken promises. When he is approached by the mysterious Telfer Vargas to track down the portrait he reluctantly agrees to one last case.

Charlotte Goode has a long personal history with the painting and will let nothing stand in her way to avenge her family.

The race across Europe to find the painting soon becomes littered with death as dark supernatural forces converge and threaten to consume those foolish enough to look.
