Rice’s The Shadow Box is a thriller and a fast-paced page turner. I’ve never read one of her novels, only reading this one for a book club and it was worth it.
Claire, an artist, is married to dashing attorney Griffin who is also running for governor. They are a beautiful couple but their are cracks in the relationship. His fabulous lifestyle hides a dark secret. In order to confront him, she plans to reveal her knowledge through an art piece which will be exhibited at her new show. But, will that ever happen?
As the book opens, she is being attack. But, she and the reader don’t know who attacked her. In her search to find out who wants to kill her, she finds a web of others who are connected to a plot to save Griffin’s secret.
“Protection came in many forms. My love of nature and my father, and their love for me, had made me strong and brave, and I had survived.”
