A YA magical murder mystery that a Kirkus starred review called, "a heady blend of the fantastical, the murderous, and the romantic."

​​

A young portrait artist whose paintings have the power to change people’s actual bodies is blackmailed into completing a piece to raise the governor’s son from the dead. However, as she begins work on the painting, it becomes clear the boy’s death was no accident, and the killer may be after her next.

"How easy it is to dress up the truth in pretty lies."​
