About the Book

Alma Gilbert, renowned expert on the art of Maxfield Parrish, and the history of the Cornish, New Hampshire art colony, brings her forty plus years of experience as a museum owner and curator to this, her first venture in fiction. Her plucky heroine, Maggie Winters, an elderly Vermont museum director, is suddenly faced with the apparent theft of a recently donated and very valuable Maxfield Parrish painting. Gilbert uses the calm beauty of rural Vermont as the setting for an exciting and fast-paced story of the museum's efforts to uncover the whereabouts of the painting. Along the way, Maggie, her friends and loyal staff must cope with a group of unsavory characters who are attempting to seize the painting for their own use. Thwarted by the painting's sudden disappearance, the group resorts to murder in an attempt to locate the prized painting before Maggie can solve the mystery of its disappearance. Can Maggie win the race against time with her opponents?
About the Author: Alma Gilbert is a nationally renowned expert in the art of the American artist Maxfield Parrish who was active from 1890 to 1965. Parrish lived all of his adult life in the rural hills of the Connecticut River Valley in New Hampshire. Mrs. Gilbert has owned well over 100 of Parrish's original paintings during her forty plus year career. She has written over 14 books on Parrish's life, career and paintings. Mrs. Gilbert has founded and run museums dedicated to the works of Maxfield Parrish, and is thus uniquely qualified to write from personal experiences about the adventures of running such an operation.
