With The Opposite of Art, three-time Christy Award winner Athol Dickson delivers a compelling tale of reconciliation and redemption. The discovery of a painting signed by a renowned artist-dead for 25 years-causes quite a stir when it seems to be recently completed. After the world's foremost expert pronounces it authentic, three lives are destined to collide: a circus sketch artist longing to paint God's face, the daughter he never knew, and the man plotting to kill them both.
