If art can capture a soul, what happens when one of those souls escapes?
People have been going missing from the home of reclusive artist Leo Kubin for decades, but no one told art appraiser Anita Cassatt, or her team.
When they start cataloguing Kubin's extensive collection of portraits and antiques, they don't expect to find an unfinished portrait on an easel with the paint still wet. An unfinished portrait which looks eerily familiar...
Kubin's lawyer didn't share the detailed instructions regarding the handling of the portraits, and Anita and her team start work in ignorance of the very instructions designed to keep them safe ... safe from the art.
*A delicate chiller written in the spirit of a Shirley Jackson novel, where Poltergeist meets Carravagio.
Painted is an effective haunted house book, favoring tension and subtlety over outright violence and kills.*
