Intrepid young curator-turned-private eye Jenna Murphy-whom readers
first met in A Head in Cambodia-goes to the tourist town of Ubud to
study early twentieth-century Balinese painting. But her first
discovery when she arrives in Indonesia is the speared body of
expat artist Flip Hendricks. She soon is working with an old
friend, a detective for the Ubud police force, to seek the killer.
Jenna suspects the motive for the killing has to do with Flip's
paintings. Detective Wayan Tyo is not so sure. Is Jenna right, or
are there other forces at work in this paradise overrun with
tourists? The threats to Jenna's safety pile up, until she can no
longer deny that her life is in danger. Her entanglement with
various men only clouds her judgment and complicates the situation.
As she did in the first Jenna Murphy book, in A Death in Bali,
Nancy Tingley draws on her extensive experience as a scholar of
Asian art to bring the armchair traveler an immersive, inside view
of the art world.
