Painted to Death: A Kevin Brodie Mystery - Kevin Brodie Mysteries, #1

After eighteen years with the Los Angeles Police Department, Kevin Brodie is starting his new career as a social worker with the District Attorney's Bureau of Victim Services. He's meshing with his new partner, Jamilah Daly, and his first client encounter goes well. Life is good...except he can't figure out why Jon Eckhoff's victim looks familiar. Jon's first case as a Homicide Special detective is a French artist named Genevieve Lemieux, strangled and tossed into a ravine near the Getty Museum.
According to the French Consulate, Genevieve hasn't been to the U. S. since 2002. Who would want Genevieve dead? One of the art gallery owners with whom she's been negotiating? One of the rotating cast of young men seen with her in newspaper photos?When Jon learns that Genevieve was born in California and has changed her name, Kevin realizes why she looks familiar. That realization leads Kevin and Jon to a man who Kevin never dreamed he'd see again.
But is the man also a victim? Or is he a killer?
