The Museum of Small Art's Everyman — Kat Simons

Don't turn your back on the paintings… Anne Reynolds shows up at crime scenes that baffle the police. Her specialty, and history, in art forgery make her an easy choice for investigating a murder at the Museum of Small Art. But she hasn't been called in because of her art skills. The body on the gallery floor has a story to tell. A story drenched in blood. Sprawled beneath a painting steeped in demonic lore. And only Anne can get the dead to talk. A touch. One touch, and she sees everything. But seeing everything in the strange Everyman's Soul painting opens secrets that haunt. And screams for murder. Author's Note: This story is also published in the collection HAUNTS AND HOWLS WHERE DEMONS DWELL.
