From the New York Times bestselling author of The Art of the Con and The Rembrandt Heist comes the chilling and in-depth story behind the disapperance of Ana Walshe.

On New Year’s Eve, 2022, Ana Walshe, a beautiful and successful young immigrant and mother of three, enjoyed a quiet but happy evening at home with her husband and their closest friend. She went to bed filled with optimism about the year ahead.

She was never seen alive again.

Her husband waited days before reporting her missing from their home in the wealthy suburb of Cohasset, Massachusetts. The case captivated the nation. Within days, suspicion fell on her husband Brian Walshe—a man awaiting sentencing in federal court for selling forged Andy Warhol paintings, and whose life, it turned out, was a lifelong deception.

In House of Lies: Marriage, Murder, and the Art of Deception, best-selling author and art crime expert Anthony Amore traces Walshe's descent from elite con artist to convicted killer, exposing the disturbing narcissistic throughline that connects his art fraud to the murder of his wife. Blending true crime, psychological insight, and investigative rigor, this is the definitive account of a modern-day tragedy.

Through exclusive interviews with police investigators, the state prosecutor, and a former FBI profiler, Amore provides granular details about the investigation that quickly escalated from a missing person case to a homicide investigation despite Ana’s remains never being found.
