New York Times–Bestselling Author: “A real page-turner . . . romantic suspense that will appeal to fans of Catherine Coulter, Iris Johansen, and Linda Howard.” —Booklist Police rookie Ashley Montague is shocked by the discovery of a body on the highway—and her glimpse of a mysterious hooded figure watching from the side of the road. At another crime scene in the heart of the Everglades, Detective Jake Dilessio stares at the mutilated body of a woman—and notes the striking resemblance to previous victims he’s seen. But he put away a cult leader for those murders five years ago. Is this a copycat killing, or is the wrong man behind bars? As they join their investigations together, the last thing Ashley and Jake want or need is the electric pull of desire as they are dragged deeper into a dangerous conspiracy. Now, with time running out and their lives on the line, they have everything to fight for . . . and everything to lose. “The fast action is neatly punctuated by red herrings and false clues . . . Graham’s tight plotting, her keen sense of when to reveal and when to tease, and her eye for the Florida landscape will keep fans turning the pages.” —Publishers Weekly

The "Art of the Dead" showcases the vibrant, charismatic poster art that emerged from the streets of San Francisco in 1964 and 1966. It traces the cultural, political, and historical influences of posters as art back to Japanese wood blocks through Bell Epoque, on to the Beatniks, the Free Speech Movement, and the Acid Tests. Featuring interviews and profiles of the key artists, including Rick Griffin, Stanley "Mouse" Miller, Alton Kelley, Wes Wilson, and Victor Moscoso. The book uses Grateful Dead as the vehicle to tell the story of poster art as The Dead were the band that ultimately proved to be the most substantive and engaged partner for the artists and hence featured the best art of any rock 'n' roll band ever. The book will follow a chronological evolution of the art from the band's origination in 1965 through Jerry Garcia's death in 1995.
