Murder In The Afterimage

By K. J. McGillick

Light can lie. Evidence can be staged.

When grad student Noelle Hart finds Bracken Mill's security chief dead inside a sealed booth, every clue points to her - the paint under his cuff, matched to her own palette.

But Noelle sees light and shadow for a living, and something in this scene doesn't hold: a beam that falls where it shouldn't, a truth staged for the camera instead of caught by it. The real evidence is hiding in the negative space nobody thought to check.

To clear her name, Noelle has to expose the illusion before the killer arranges her into the next carefully staged frame.

Perfect for readers of Louise Penny and Tana French - a moody art-school mystery for anyone who wants their sleuth's expertise to be the whole method.
