<b>A pair of newbie academics find themselves reluctant sleuths and even more reluctant targets when a fellow professor turns up dead.</b><br><br>When art professor Vika Chen discovers the strangled body of Professor McGuire in a campus art studio, she becomes the prime suspect in a murder connected to an exhibition exposing AI-generated art. <br><br>Since local law enforcement fails to find any optional leads, Vika and her partner, journalism professor Sam Worthing, take the investigation into their own hands. Vika, who until recently worked as a curator at MoMA, and Sam, a former crime reporter for the <i>New York Times</i>, find themselves uniquely suited for the job. <br><br>Much to the chagrin of the police chief, the pair’s investigation pinpoints multiple suspects who might have felt threatened by the exhibition. But the stakes become deadly when someone tries to run Vika off the road. <br><br>As more bodies pile up, Vika and Sam uncover a collage of secrets that someone would kill to keep buried.
