Story Merchant Books launches Art Johnson's second detective thriller Deadly Impressions after his premier critically acclaimed The Devil’s Violin. The musician/writer who worked with Lena Horne, Tim Buckley and Pavarotti to name a few resides in Monaco.

His newest novel begins with the kidnapping of Pasadena billionaire Ezekiel Fick's granddaughter. Enter ex-LA PD Lieutenant Arnold "Arney" Blackburn who has become a private eye since his dismissal from the force. But the abduction doesn’t follow the rule book and now an L.A. drug lord, a Chicago gangster, and a host of Hollywood's "A" list are all potentially involved.
Eighty-year-old Ezekiel Fick hides a life changing secret in his past. His uncle Roderich, a preferred architect of Adolf Hitler, left him a fortune in impressionist paintings by none other than Claude Monet, works that were thought to be destroyed nearly a century ago.

Tensions mount as Arney joins forces with FBI agents Chris Clarke and Carlos "Chubbs".Gonzales (The Devils Violin) to weed through the overgrowth of the Hollywood Hills in search of the missing girl and to find out who her real abductors are. Even PI Arney Blackburn is completely baffled by the time the final curtain falls. He never saw this one coming.
Deadly Impressions pits ghosts from the past against those phantoms in control of the present to weave a haunting story that will stay with you long after you turn the last page.
