Guilty Knowledge

Gossip-columnist Rain Morgan is dispatched to the French Riviera to interview painter Sabine Jourdain, part of the coterie (and mistress) of the legendary octogenarian artist Marius Durance. Rain is accompanied by her lover Oliver, though their relationship is running far from smoothly, but neither of them suspects that the glamorous world of art dealers and their luxury yacht lifestyle in Antibes could be so firmly based on greed, pride and dubious loyalties. And then the dead body of Sabine Jourdain is hauled from the harbour.... When Guilty Knowledge was first published in 1986, Woman magazine acclaimed 'an outstanding new writer' and the Sunday Times noted that its 'Fine, confident brushwork catches every nuance of fraud and worse'.
