Marked Masters (A Bodies of Art Mystery Book 2)

markedmastersThis is the second book in this series. I have read both and found that Marked Masters as an excellent second in series. I liked that the pace picked up, which makes sense as we now have the background on these characters so more writing to given over to action.

The story picks up where the last one left off. I do suggest reading these books in order as there is a cross over of plot lines that makes more sense if you have the background of the first book.

The book focuses on Laurel Beacham and her efforts to re-obtain artworks which have been stolen or otherwise taken from their original owners. Jack Hawkes (who seems to be a member of British secret service) is there to assist her – or is it to interfere with her efforts? This time the locale is mostly in Italy and once again, Laurel’s handbag and her borrowed scarf are used to their utmost. Though I think the handbag has changed in brand from the first book, it is just as resourceful.

Definitely looking forward to more books in this series.

I was provided a digital advance reader copy of this book by the publisher via Netgalley.
