About the Book:
Gallery owner Ally Blake risks everything to exhibit at an art fair in Bogota in the 1990s. She needs wealthy collectors to boost her gallery's sales and save her family from bankruptcy. When her art crates are tampered with and she discovers an ex-boyfriend and colleague from her State Department days in Santiago has involved her in a money laundering scheme, she devises a strategy to thwart the fraud, protect her children, and secure her family's future--but pulling it off will require her to make the art deal of a lifetime.
"Love thrillers? Me, too, and Linda Moore's whip smart Five Days in Bogot adds extra ammunition to the genre, with a feisty art . . . heroine on the verge of bankruptcy who has to thwart art fraud, nefarious ex-boyfriend, and even drug lords, in order to keep her family safe. A hold-your-breath read about what we do for love--of family and of art."
--Caroline Leavitt, New York Times best-selling author of Pictures of You and With or Without You
