Riassunto

The Woman Was a Devil is a page-turner about a forty-year old virgin who passed her time as an antique collector until she discovered a mysterious Gauguin painting. This brought her into contact with a fraudulent curator who turned out to be a devilish woman.Suddenly three men become her love life-a lawyer, famous country western singer, and a handsome cad with an inheritance. Her steady companion is her faithful dog, a Yorkshire terrier. Women friends turn on her, but two old friends who were early school mates come to her aid. One lovable curator helps her use her knowledge of antiques to find her way out of a great quandary.The world of antiques revealing American history, auctions, charlatans and odd characters make this fascinating story even more intriguing. The mystery begins in a small Pennsylvania town just after World War II but reaches out to include Washington, D.C., the National Gallery, the Smithsonian, the Willard Hotel, Georgetown, and Las Vegas, as well as Dublin, Ireland.
