      From award-winning artist and author Paul Madonna, Come to Light is a beautifully illustrated three-part mystery novel series weaving a gripping tale of a lost love, a vengeful sister, and the imminent death of a man--unless Emit Hopper can discover the truth in time. For five years Emit Hopper's wife Julia has been missing, and now the bodies of her two hiking companions have been found and identified in Yosemite Valley. Emit was convinced that Julia's ex-boyfriend, Guillaume, was responsible for everything, but when new evidence arises Emit is not so sure anymore. Julia's sister, however, is less hesitant: she hires a professional gunman to take care of Guillaume. Quickly, Emit finds his life spinning out of control: he becomes a target of a State Department investigation, gets entangled in an international ring of art thefts, and finds his own artwork for an exhibition stolen. Now Emit is also on a deadline to save the one man who likely could be the reason and cause for the greatest misery of his life. Replete with almost one hundred drawings that illuminate this fun and intriguing page-turner, Come to Light is the thrilling follow-up to Emit Hopper's story, which debuted in Close Enough for the Angels.
