Synopsis
Come to Light is three volumes of secrets, deceit, murder, and above all, a pursuit of whisky, art and books. Paul Madonna has taken No Reservations, The Goldfinch , and the classic detective novel, thrown them into a blender, and whipped up an addictive and memorable cocktail of a book. A quick-paced fiction murder mystery (Elmore Leonard style) full of memorable, eccentric characters. Not a graphic novel, rather an illustrated novel, with a museum quality package that is a portable and collectible keepsake. Of interest and the perfect gift for fans of: art; lit; noir; detective fiction; travel fiction; and mysteries. Author is very popular and has a devoted fan base who will be supportive of this new work. Paul's distinctive art can be seen on packaging and promos for popular brands like Tacolicious and Anchor Steam. Each volume works independently, and each volume's art helps to tell the story and plunges the reader into the story in real time. The first volume's art is sketches, the second's is sketches of another artist's sculptures, and the third's art is finished drawings from the first volume, tying the stories together. Includes scenes in Lisbon, Barcelona, Rome, Venice, the South of France, and Amsterdam. Images unfold as we watch them being made--a new and interesting approach to the illustrated novel. Part of a growing series and a fictional "world" that will include serialization and numerous spinoff storylines. True historical events, as told to the author/artist, were woven into the story. These include: a landowner smuggling Jewish people out under the nose of the Germans, and of the landowner who was killed by locals for informing on him, and a story of the last days of Saigon, of the underground railroad to get south Vietnamese civilians visas into the states, as well as Ambassador Martin's being thrown onto a transport because he wouldn't leave., From award-winning artist and author Paul Madonna comes an electrifying mystery novel full of unexpected plot twists, lively characters, and over one hundred lush drawings. Presented in an innovative three-volume boxed set, Come to Light is a gripping page-turner that weaves an intoxicating tale of love, murder, books and art. Featured as a CrimeReads "Daily Thrill" "Almost any book is sure to please the bookish, but a book that can pique the interest of bibliophiles is as precious as a padparadscha sapphire. Here are some such gems. . . Artist and author Paul Madonna pens a mystery novel full of unexpected plot twists and lively characters accompanied by more than 100 strikingly rendered drawings that bring this novel to life. This tale of love, murder, books, and art is presented in a three-volume box set. -- Publishers Weekly "Blown away by Paul Madonna's new book Come to Light . [Madonna] blends a mystery novel with his usual stunning artwork--highly recommended." -- Mike Krieger , co-founder and former CTO of Instagram Come to Light is a fresh and original mystery with an unusual detective: Emit Hopper, a former rock star turned author and artist. Six years ago, Emit's wife, Julia, went missing. Now the remains of her two hiking companions have been found buried in the California wilderness. But the discovery raises more questions than answers, so with his love for classic detective books and rye whiskey, Emit sets out across Europe chasing down clues, sketchbook in hand. Quickly, Emit finds himself embroiled in a plot far larger than he could have imagined: he becomes a target of a State Department investigation, gets entangled in an international ring of art thefts, and discovers his own artwork stolen. He meets an exuberant French nobleman, a murderous five-year-old, and a bohemian Roman heiress. From the Venice Biennale to the flooding of Piazza Navona, you'll find yourself laughing, gasping, and drawing right alongside Emit as he travels through some of the most beautiful regions of Europe, unraveling a suspense-filled and surprisingly tangled mystery. Replete with strikingly rendered drawings that bring this exquisite and intriguing novel to life, Come to Light is the thrilling follow-up to the adventures of Emit Hopper, which debuted in Close Enough for the Angels., Three volumes of secrets, deceit, murder, and above all, a pursuit of whisky, art and books. In Come to Light , Paul Madonna has taken No Reservations, The Goldfinch , and the classic detective novel, thrown them into a blender, and whipped up an addictive and memorable cocktail of a book.
