Clean Break

JACKET NOTES:  When a precious impressionist Monet painting is nicked from a posh British estate where Kate Brannigan arranged the security, the tough-talking PI is right on the job to get it back.For Kate, whose sources extend from Manchester's seedy crime world to its elite online computer hackers, finding the thief is a cinch. But staying out of harm's way as she chases afer stolen art is anything but. In the meantime, Kate is also hired by the Kerrchern company to track down an industrial saboteur who is dosing its top-selling cleanser with cyanide. As the dead keep dropping, Kate's professional reputation is on the line and so is her long-term romance. But she refuses to give up and insists on doing things her way, no matter what--whether there's hell to pay or simply a long stint in the slammer.
