Winner of the "Love is Murder" People's Choice Award for Best First Novel Two months ago Annie Callaghan made a mistake. She thought she'd planned for every contingency. After five years in a bad marriage she filed for divorce, began to pursue her dreams of being a full-time artist, and quit her job to work for herself. Now, well on her way to a brand-new start with her fledgling mural painting business and her handsome new client, life finally holds promise again. But, as she finds out things are not always what they seem. An unexpected pregnancy and the intrusion of her loser, soon-to-be-ex-husband back into her world send things into a tailspin. Determined to get back on track and get her life together by using a little artistic license, Annie inadvertently puts events in motion that sweep her into a maelstrom of intrigue involving a stolen masterpiece, a powerful lawyer with questionable connections, and a murder for which she's the prime suspect. Julie A. Hyzy dreamed of being a writer from the time she was old enough to put a string of words together. Only recently has she been able to make writing a priority in her life. Julie is a graduate of the intensive Oregon Coast Professional Fiction Writer's Workshop. She lives in Chicago's Southwest suburbs where she reviews movies for a metropolitan newspaper and writes fiction. Dedicated to her craft, Julie makes time to write at least two pages every single day.
