Jay Leicester is hired to find Renato Renaldi a  missing art dealer by his sister Sandy Renaldi  who incidentally  not simply his sister but his partner in the gallery.  It turned out that the gallery (in the French Quarter )  specializes in  high end art, selling to the ultra rich and the occasional wise guys, mostly New Orleans mob types. To complicate maters Renato was carrying $450.000 in cash .  Renaldi had been traveling to coastal Maine to purchase an art collection located on a small off shore island when he had last been heard from. Even with circumstances being less than optimal Jay accepts the case and travels north with Sandy hopefully to find her brother and of not at least find out what happened and just maybe where the money went.The story is well written , peopled with rich personalities and realistically portrayed situations and cultures. This is quite possibly the best of the series to date, a very enjoyable book.
