This dark, twisting work of digital-age noir is ';a riveting mystery... An incredibly daring novel and a complete success' (Booklist, starred review). On a winter night in Boston, a man falls to his death in front of a train. The sole witness, a shaken young woman, explains to the police how the man shoved her aside as he made his way to the tracks. But when her blog turns up on the dead man's computer, the cops begin to look for other connections between them. This dark and intricate tale of obsession and deception is told in the form of a blog written by an elusive narrator known only by her online name, ';l.g. fickel.' Deep into the night, every night, Fickel posts about ';Mr. Suicide' and the ensuing police investigation. She is joined in her blog chats by a loyal group of commenters. Is Fickel's tale that of an innocent woman frantically trying to figure out how her online activity has enmeshed her in a murder case, or is she a manipulator, playing an elaborate game as she grinds out her revenge on those she feels have betrayed her? ';Noir fans should enjoy the twists and turns that echo such genre classics such as Double Indemnity and The Asphalt Jungle.' Publishers Weekly

Good art can make a person cry; great art can make a person kill.Paire Anjou came to New York to be an artist, but thus far has only achieved an artist boyfriend-the enfant terrible of the art world, Derek Rosewood. On her way to his show, where his controversial paintings will be on display, Paire sees an older man on the sidewalk, looking into the window of the Fern Gallery, gazing intently at a painting, and sobbing. As Paire approaches him, the man stabs himself in the chest. The painting that inspired the suicide is a one-off for the gallery-the last-known surviving work of a dissident Chinese artist named Qi. An empress, dressed in red, sits imperiously and stares out at the viewer. Paire is but one of the people who stare back, joined by hundreds, from around the world, flocking to the Fern Gallery to observe and obsess over the Empress. The Empress inspires lust and panic, rage and greed. When Paire starts digging into the backstory of the painting, and its artist, she unravels a tale of profound betrayal and a vengeance that spans generations. She also sets in motion the painting's final heist, a swirling morass of bribery, theft, and murder, drawing Paire deeper and deeper into the underside of the art world, where the greatest works inspire the most vicious of crimes. "e;Art can be seductive, powerful, transformative. It can also tempt, lie, destroy. Alex Dolan's gripping The Empress of Tempera reveals the dark side of beauty through a story of knife-sharp suspense full of wicked surprises."e; -Andrew Pyper, #1 internationally bestselling author
