Description
“This author is sheer perfection when it comes to using descriptions and locations that are richly done and offer sharp details throughout the entirety of the story.” – Suspense Magazine
When art recovery expert Laurel Beacham’s personal and professional worlds collide, she learns no good theft goes unpunished. Incomplete intel and a missing source compel her to make a huge mistake, and she’s left with a divided team. Every retrieved masterpiece has a price—and the cost of forgeries can be deadly. This time Laurel could lose not only her best lead, but also her most trusted ally.
The stakes have never been higher, forcing her and her partner, Jack, to go on the run, crisscrossing Europe to evade the criminals. Except instead of two masterminds working against them, they realize there might be three. With no time to lose, Laurel and her team must pool their resources and work to set aside their differences before they become the next fatalities.
“I highly recommend the entire series.” – King’s River Life Magazine

Wow, just wow! Fatal Forgeries starts out like a James Bond movie and just keeps going full speed all the way to the end. Laurel Beacham is amazing, and is at the top of her game, which is an absolute necessity for this book. She literally cannot turn around without facing a kidnapping attempt, a mugging, or a pesky, but very knowledgeable, British reporter who wants more information than Laurel is prepared to give on the Beacham Foundation. We learn a lot more about Laurel's past, why she does what she does, and we get a glimmer of why she is suddenly in so much danger. Loyalties are questioned, friends and people from her past come into play, and some relationships are revealed. But Laurel is mostly on her own in Fatal Forgeries and has to use every asset she has to keep herself and her friends and co-workers safe.
Unlike Laurel, I could take a breather from all the action, but I literally could not put this book down! The non-stop action, intricate plots and twists and turns in all of the books in the Bodies of Art series are something I love, and I don't know what I'm going to do now that I have to wait for the next book to come out! I highly recommend this series, and while all the books can stand alone, you really do not want to miss one bit of the story and action from any the books in this series.

'Fatal Forgeries' by Ritter Ames is absolute perfection. Once again Laurel Beacham is on a roller coaster of suspense from the first line of the book and I have joyful anxiety following every inch of her journey. The surprises in this third book of the series are shocking, with twists and turns that left me stunned. My only regret is that it ended, but it hasn't left my mind. I keep revisiting and revising any insights gathered. This is gritty and wonderful. I can't recommend it highly enough.
