Dead Down Under — Anita Zelman

Rebecca Lewis, who writes a popular celebrity homes column for a Los Angeles newsTC, is fascinated by the art the celebrities collect. She convinces her editor that she should write about celebrity art collections, and should begin with the Whistler etchings collected by power agent, Howard Major. Since the collection will be exhibited in Australia, Rebecca manages to get invited to join a group headed by Howard Majors, his eccentric wife, Claudia, and their art curator on the trip to the opening. In Australia it comes to light that several of the etchings have been replaced by others art theft which puts the exhibition in danger of being canceled and Major's reputation on the line. During the tour from Sydney, to Canberra, to Melbourne two people are murdered and Claudia and Rebecca find themselves in harms way in the outback. Once back in Los Angeles, Rebecca's life is still in danger until she identifies and eludes the murderer.
