A Fine Art Birthday Bash is about to turn messy when the guests show up dead!
Recently restored from the chaos the opening of her shop brought, Ginger Burnet is invited by one of her former art teachers, who has now become quite the renowned artist, to handle the catering for her very prestigious birthday bash in a private coastal island just outside Little Chiswick, involving some big players from the fine art world. With exclusive pieces to be sold, this luxurious event is destined to be a great challenge and opportunity for Ginger and her business.
When she gets there, excitement is palpable in the air. Ginger has never attended such a grand occasion, let alone provide food service for so many VIPs.
Can this be the break she needs so desperately?
In the midst of all the extravagant food preparations, one of the guests is found dead. The rest of the guests find themselves in turmoil, as the island is cut off from any communications with the outside world…and one of them is the killer.
Putting on her sleuth hat, with her experience coming to play, Ginger starts a race against the clock to find who the real murderer is and what they want.
Can she find the culprit and save the guests, or will her time run out?

<h3>Prologue</h3>
<br>
No one seems to understand that art is my life. I don’t have the outward look of some of these other celebrity lifestyle artists, with their wild hair and strange way of dressing, but my heart beats for art. Why is it so difficult for those around me to understand that? Why am I not appreciated? Revered?
<br><br>
I suppose that is the curse of a true artist: to not be appreciated in their lifetime. Think of Vincent van Gogh, William Blake, and all those other artists who died unknown and practically penniless. Now they are considered geniuses, not only of their time but of modern history.
<br><br>
That’s what I want. That adoration. That public worship.
<br><br>
But I want it now. Why should I have to wait until I’m in the ground, mouldering away and unable to accept the adoration of my admirers?
<br><br>
This island gallery, the art spread out across the forests and open lawns, is a stroke of genius I desperately wish I had thought of myself. I look around at the art suspended above me in the trees and sunk into the ground on gleaming plinths and I feel the seething rage again. I deserve this and so much more besides.
<br><br>
Somewhere in the distance, I hear Ariadne and David directing the construction of the marquee. They don’t know I slipped onto the island for a private preview, and they can’t know I’m here. I need to leave the island and return with the rest of the guests on the day of the party.
<br><br>
I must remain in the shadows for now. But my time will come.
<br><br>
I will make sure of it.
