Monet for Nothing

Taking refuge from London's mating season, Teddy travels to Paris for a little light smuggling but soon finds herself at the centre of the impossible heist of a priceless masterpiece on its way to auction.

Her friends are under the gavel for forgery, fraud, and filching fine art, but sorting the clues from the counterfeits only gets more surreal as Teddy's seemingly simple smuggling scheme turns into yet another impossible theft, and she must canvas the capricious, suspicious, and radically seditious authors, artists, swindlers, and socialites of the literary Left Bank of 1920s Paris.

Like all Teddy Quillfeather Mysteries, Monet for Nothing aims to frame a caper in comedy for those who take their cosies with a couple of coats of clever.
