The Art of Survival

What does a man do for diversion when a blow-out strands him in the snowy wilds of Santa Fe? If he's Fiddler--and he's just burned up 1500 miles of open road between California and New Mexico--he's ripe for trouble. And Native American painter Maggie Tenorio is Trouble with a capital T--a stunning Apache princess with a Bryn Mawr gloss and a deadly gaze.

Maggie invites him to the swank unveiling of a "lost" Georgia O'Keeffe painting, where Fiddler detects the potent scent of fraud. Suddenly, his dance card is filled with unsavory characters trying to waltz him out of town-like the slick art dealer and his drop-dead blond lethal weapon. But when his own ex-wife Fiora shows up on the arm of a billionaire collector and a trigger-happy IRS investigator starts playing dirty, Fiddler begins to get the picture--and it's a deadly masterpiece of greed and violence.
