Ingår i serienRain Morgan (3)
Gossip-columnist Rain Morgan is dispatched to the French Riviera to interview painter Sabine Jourdain, part of the coterie (and mistress) of the legendary octogenarian artist Marius Durance. Rain is accompanied by her lover Oliver, though their relationship is running far from smoothly, but neither of them suspects that the glamorous world of art dealers and their luxury yacht lifestyle in Antibes could be so firmly based on greed, pride and dubious loyalties. And then the dead body of Sabine Jourdain is hauled from the harbour.... When Guilty Knowledge was first published in 1986, Woman magazine acclaimed an outstanding new writer and the Sunday Times noted that its Fine, confident brushwork catches every nuance of fraud and worse.

Here's a brief look without a single spoiler:
Rain Morgan is a journalist in London, working mostly with gossip, but she has an opportunity to interview a famous artist in France and takes it. Actually, her boyfriend suggests the trip, but when she goes to meet this elusive person, things start getting weird from the start. The artist is not where she said she was going to be, and Rain is asked to meet her aboard a yacht. It is obvious that everyone there is trying to prevent Rain from meeting with the artist directly, and another meeting for dinner is scheduled the next day. Rain gets there late, and on entering the yacht, hears the artist in an argument with a man. She leaves the yacht, goes and sits at a local cafe; on her way back she sees people staring at something in the water. As she goes to see what's caught their attention, to her horror she notes that it's the artist she'd come to interview. And to make matters worse, the police think she may have had something to do with the artist's death! So not only does she have to clear herself, but other incidents crop up that put Rain in danger.
The author's writing is quite good and I appreciated the intelligence of the mystery. ( )
