Hiding in plain sight-Eoghan Egan -Crime/thriller 

"Small towns conceal big secrets"

A book with several plot lines to keep you thinking all the way. An art dealer has killed

a woman and is trying to lure his next victim. He has killed several times before and

leaves no trace of bodies, the women only ever being listed as missing.  Meanwhile in a

group of friends one woman has found her husband is having an affair, little knowing

the mistress is one of the group. One of the men is up for redundancy, his wife

seemingly not understanding the need to cut back and “needing” her weekly hair

appointment and expensive accoutrements. Another small group are operating an art

scam, replacing valuable works of art with fakes and selling on the real ones. Sharona

discovers this and puts the police into action. Meanwhile the killer is up to his old tricks,

several women now being in his sights. This is one of those reads where you need your

wits about you. There are alot of characters and no detective as such, however this is

well written and I soon got into it. A mystery within a scam within a scandal. 

A different, very entertaining read.
