Paint Me Midnight Blue

When New York City abstract artist Johnny Howard bought a vacation home in the sleepy village of Woodstock to escape the turmoil of the contemporary art world, his life changed forever, and not by what people could see. Visited by the ghostly spirit of a teenage girl who disappeared from the old boarded-up Broadway dance school he now calls home, he embarks on a perilous journey to avenge her brutal killing of eight years earlier, turning his own life upside down, never to be the same.

An exciting look at the world outside our minds and within our hearts...

"Who was this Lizzie Connelly who snipped locks of her raven hair, and put it in this dance book? Why? Did she have one of those short haircuts girls sometimes get after wearing her hair shoulder length for years? I looked around the spacious half empty living room which had been used for the rehearsals. I could almost hear the girls dance those staccato footsteps, and the dance mistress calling out the movement changes. I flipped through the dance book for a minute. I thought about how this had belonged to one of those dancers who was determined to make it big on Broadway, so full of ambition and talent, bubbling with infectious excitement. They believed the world was theirs for the taking. It made me smile to think about that."
