An Unfinished Canvas Summary

An Unfinished Canvas: A True Story of Love, Family, and Murder in Nashville by Phyllis Gobbell

No body, no cause of death, no physical evidenceand yet, after ten years, a murder conviction . . .

Janet March, artist and wife of corporate lawyer Perry March, had it all: two children she adored, a promising career as an artist, supportive parents, and a dream house she designed. But behind closed doors her husband led a destructive double life of secrets and lies. On August 16, 1996, Janet had an appointment to finally file for divorce; she never made it to see her lawyerbecause on the night of August 15, she vanished.

Her disappearance incited a massive search and media frenzy that revealed to the world Perry Marchs seedy dealings in the underbelly of Nashville. But he took his children and absconded away to a new life in Mexico. For ten years, Janets parents fought their depraved son-in-law through the court system in what would become an international custody battle culminating in Perrys dramatic extradition to Tennessee.

Meanwhile, the Nashville Police Department investigated the case from every possible angle but never found a body. In spite of overwhelming odds, cold case detectives and prosecutors were determined to find justice for Janetand with the help of a shocking surprise witness, they did.

A delight! With Jordan Mayfair, Phyllis has given us a protagonist who will resonate with every woman whos ever lived with love, loss, and struggle, and managed to triumph over it all. Add in an exquisitely intricate plot, a quirky and appealing supporting cast, and all the flavor of the French countryside, and youve got a winner! So uncork a nice Semillon and enjoy this one.

Praise for Phyllis Gobbell and Treachery in Tuscany

There are plot twists and intrigue, family secrets and rivalries, a debonair lover, a delicious locale and all the usual accoutrements of the satisfying travel cozy, but Phyllis Gobbell gives the proceedings her own particular spin.
Kate Falvey, Ph.D., Editor in Chief, 2 Bridges Review

Praise for Phyllis Gobbell and Secrets and Shamrocks

A visit to the verdant Irish countryside is marred by murder. The second in Gobbells travel series is filled with delightful descriptions of Ireland and offbeat characters.
Kirkus Review

Gobbells enjoyable sequel to 2015s Pursuit in Provence takes Savannah, Ga., architect Jordan Mayfair and her travel writer uncle, Alex Carlyle, to Ireland. Jordans keen knowledge of architecture and history comes in handy in her efforts to uncover the truth. Fans of travel cozies will find plenty to like.
