"By now a celebrated and successful artist, Claude Monet returns to London to paint his famous Thames series. Nostalgic for his earlier visit in 1870, the old man busies himself with a frenzy of creative activity. Little does he know, however, that his haunting canvasses will act as a backdrop to a series of savage killings." Oliver Craston, a fledgling diplomat at the Foreign Office, happens to be nearby when an unrecognizable body is pulled from the Thames - and from then on, he's unwillingly drawn into the police investigation. Meanwhile, with anti-French sentiment running high in London, the Foreign Office wants Craston to keep a close eye on M. Monet and his son, who are staying at the Savoy Hotel. But none of the men knows that the source of the horror - a horror beyond even the imagination of an artist - stalks the floor above M. Monet's suite.
“A great read – the stark contrast between the beautiful descriptions of Monet’s painting and the macabre murders held my attention to the very last page.
