A review by meferguson75
The Muralist by B.A. Shapiro

2.0

This is one of those scenarios where I wish Goodreads let you give half stars! The Muralist was a 2.5 star experience for me. I was engaged in the 1940 piece of the story - wanting to understand Alizee's environment, circle of friends, work and its relation to her disappearance. But I wasn't as engaged in the 2016 story of her great niece Danielle (Dani) and her struggles at Christie's, her family or her investigation into Alizee's disappearance. The ending was also too pat for me - without spoilers - it wasn't believable that the dots would be connected so easily.
