<p>The prominent artist Marilyn Maroney's life-sized sculpture of Athena, the warrior goddess, stood on the third-floor balcony of the Dahlia Art Gallery. Guests numbering 300 attended the art reception and sauntered between the gallery and the Velvet Muse, a performance venue.       The next morning, Georgi Algarve is sweeping the front sidewalk of his Vinho Verde Wine Bar, but when he looks up, he lets out a blood-curdling scream. His beautiful friend Marilyn was dead, impaled by Athena's spear.       Within days another artist is abducted, and the investigators uncover a world of deception, theft, and greed. In shock, the art community wonders - are any artists, galleries, or museums safe? Can the detective and the sleuths catch the killer before another artist is tricked or murdered?      Detective Morrison, and the enigmatic Dr. Storm M.E., determine if Marilyn's death is an accident or homicide. While Georgi, and his clue-hunting friend, Roxanne Samson, the Fire Chief's wife, are convinced they can help find the culprit and sleuth their way into Morrison's heart - via heartburn.    Love of Art & Murder takes us on a journey behind the scenes of the art world and into its glorious museums, galleries, and performance halls, where we discover how the intriguing world of art can be manipulated by villains. Inspired by a true art crime.</p>
