Book Description:
Murder is a fine art ...

A killer is preying on New York's art community, creating gruesome depictions of famous paintings, using human flesh and blood as his media. Terror stalks this world of genius, greed, inspiration, and jealousy -- a world Kate McKinnon knows all too well. A former NYPD cop who traded in her badge for a Ph.D in art history, Kate can see the method behind the psychopath's madness -- for the grisly slaughter of a former protégé is drawing her into the predator's path. And as each new murder exceeds the last in savagery, Kate is trapped in the twisted obsessions of the death artist, who plans to use her body, her blood, and her fear to create the ultimate masterpiece.

Described as a chilling, intriguing serial killer thriller. It is filled with "gruesome murders, clever clues and red herrings" planted by a "diabolical killer." I agree.

A little to over the top for me. I enjoy a good mystery but I prefer to keep the sexual violence and graphics to a min.
This was no where close to a James Patterson, P Cornwell or Margolin
