An Exhibit of Madness

Dr. Dulcinea ("Dulcie") Chambers has a lot on her mind. She's just opened a new exhibit of Winslow Homer watercolors at the Maine Museum of Art where she's Chief Curator. The exhibit will be complete when the museum's director, the silver fox Joshua Harriman, buys the final piece at auction. But when Dulcie discovers a body where the painting should have been, she's one of the primary suspects. Portland Police Detective Nicholas Black is on the case but finds he is less than objective when it comes to the attractive Dr. Chambers.Lead Characters include:Dr. Dulcinea Chambers - As a native, Dulcie is firmly rooted in Maine but has risen to the top of the museum world quickly. She's confident in her work but not in her skills at a cocktail party. She'd rather be at home with a good glass of wine and a book, not to mention a hearty portion of chicken fried rice.Detective Nicholas Black - Nick grew up in the socialite-filled and privileged world of Boston's elite, groomed for a career in law. He jumped ship, much to his family's horror, and chose the life of a police detective instead. He hasn't looked back and they won't forgive him.Daniel Chambers - Dulcie's irrepressible brother Dan is her complete opposite. He loves a good party, especially if it's well attended by attractive ladies. Dan is a sailor at heart and makes his living running a tour boat around Casco Bay.Adam Johnson - Nick's partner in crime-fighting, Johnson is contentedly overweight, happily married, and at the decidedly unlofty peak of his career. He enjoys antagonizing Nick along with a good cinnamon danish and a cup of coffee.
