520    "Part mystery, part coming-of-age story, and part tragedy,
       Scarlet In Blue, by acclaimed novelist Jennifer Murphy, 
       traces the lives of a mother and daughter who, because of 
       their fugitive lifestyle and the pain that overshadows it,
       share a dependence and a love so strong neither can 
       imagine life without the other. Fifteen-year-old Blue Lake
       is a budding pianist who resents her mother Scarlet's 
       nomadic lifestyle. She yearns to settle in one place so 
       she can live a normal life and play her music. But Scarlet,
       a talented painter, is on the run from a phantom man. A 
       man she insists is chasing them. A man who means to kill 
       them. Blue has never seen this man and questions whether 
       Scarlet, who is slowly going mad, has hallucinated him. It
       isn't until 1968, when they arrive in the small beach-
       front town of South Haven, Michigan, that Blue's wishes 
       begin to come true. She makes a good friend, falls in love,
       and can finally play piano. Everything seems to be going 
       fine-until Scarlet kills the man she believes has been 
       hunting them. Forty-six years later, Blue, now a pianist 
       for the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, is leaving practice 
       for her lunch-time walk past the Art Institute when she's 
       startled by the announcement of a new exhibit. 
       Highlighting the effects of chemistry on Impressionist 
       masterpieces, the exhibit triggers memories of her mother 
       and the long ago murder. Memories that Blue has spent a 
       lifetime trying to forget. Told through the alternating 
       voices of Blue, Scarlet, and Scarlet's psychoanalyst, 
       Henry, Scarlet In Blue is a story of a mother and 
       daughter's enduring love, the ramifications of past abuse,
       and the art that holds their lives together. In its 
       depiction of the bonds between mother and daughter, this 
       novel is reminiscent of Janet Finch's White Oleander and 
       Celeste Ng's Little Fires Everywhere. In its exploration 
       of the fraught psychological puzzle of the past, it calls 
       to mind Gillian Flynn's Sharp Objects"--|cProvided by
