Friday Memes: A Perfect Eye by Stephanie Kane

Beginning:
It began on a Saturday morning walk when she was five, right after her mom died. Like musical chairs, he suddenly stopped. Tell me what you see, Lily. A house with a fence. What else? A truck. What color? Red.
Friday 56:
"What happened next?"

"'Rosie's the real expert,' our guy says. 'If he says it's modern, who am I to disagree?' Case didn't even reach the jury. The U. S. Attorney blamed us, then bitched about being micromanaged from D.C."
This week I am spotlighting The Perfect Eye by Stephanie Kane. I was approached by a publicist to read and review this one. Here is the description from Amazon:
Some are born with a perfect palate, others with perfect pitch. Lily Sparks was born with a perfect eye. As Conservator of Paintings at the Denver Art Museum, she uses her keen visual powers to restore masterpieces and detect what's authentic and what is not. When the museum's billionaire benefactor is brutally murdered and Lily is dragged into the case, the grisly tableau stuns her: it's the human embodiment of the museum's prized landscape by famed Impressionist Gustave Caillebotte

Lily comes to believe the Caillebotte was forged and the killer is a painter the art world spurned. But this knowledge comes at a terrible cost. As she confronts where art ends and fraud begins, she must face the deceptions in her own past.
