One grand gallery reopening. One very dead guest. And a killer hiding in plain sight.

Sadie Stewart was hoping for champagne toasts and Instagrammable moments at the grand reopening of her fire-ravaged art gallery. Instead, she got a poisoned guest, a media frenzy, and her best friend fingered as the prime suspect.

Now Sadie's trading wine tastings for witness lists as she dives headfirst into the cutthroat world of Chicago's art scene where egos are priceless, grudges run deep, and forgery isn't just a crime, it's a career move.

With a black-market ring of stolen masterpieces, a trail of not-so-happy collectors, and one very nosy gallery owner asking the wrong questions, things are bound to get messy.

Good thing Sadie's not afraid to stir the paint.

Can she solve the murder before the killer frames her permanently?

For fans of Richard Osman, Louise Penny, and art-world mysteries filled with secrets, forgery, stolen masterpieces, and murder.

Written by artist and cozy mystery author L.B. Dayton, whose Fine Arts background brings an authentic insider's perspective to the glamorous and dangerous world of galleries, collectors, and art crime.

????? A cozy mystery that balances elegance, danger, and art-world intrigue with an emotional pulse that keeps readers turning pages. Sadie Stewart is the kind of heroine who connects deeply with readers who crave intelligence, courage, and heart in their mysteries.

????? I came across The Colour of Murder and was immediately drawn in by its gripping premise. The blend of art, mystery, and personal legacy makes it stand out in the cozy mystery genre. Sadie Stewart's determination to uncover the truth while navigating grief and deception feels like the perfect hook for fans who love character-driven mysteries with high stakes.
