The Frame Up is a mystery novel written by Davis, Richard Harding. The story revolves around a young artist named Jack who is falsely accused of a crime he did not commit. The novel is set in New York City, where Jack is living a peaceful life until he is framed for a murder. The evidence against him is strong, and he is quickly arrested and charged with the crime.However, Jack’s luck changes when he meets a mysterious woman named Miss Blake, who believes he is innocent. She offers to help him clear his name, but there is a catch. Miss Blake is not just an ordinary woman; she is a member of a secret society of art lovers who have the power to bring paintings to life. In this world, the paintings have their own personalities and agendas, and they can communicate with each other and with the humans who are involved in their world.As Jack and Miss Blake work together to find the real killer, they must navigate the complex relationships between the paintings and the humans. They encounter a cast of characters, including a scheming art dealer, a jealous ex-girlfriend, and a number of quirky paintings who have their own agendas.The Frame Up is a fast-paced and engaging mystery novel that will keep readers guessing until the very end. It is a unique and creative take on the classic whodunit, with a fascinating world of living paintings and a cast of memorable characters.There had been hundreds of clews. They had been furnished by the detectives of the city and county and of the private agencies, by amateurs, by news- papers, by members of the underworld with a score to pay off or to gain favor. But no clew had led anywhere.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
