Art School ConfidentialISBN: 9781424825547erome goes to art school in the hopes of having his genuine ability recognized. Instead he finds that his teachers are self-obsessed has-beens and his peers are jaded and floundering. To make matters worse, Jerome finds himself being investigated for a series of gruesome stranglings. He becomes obsessed with a lovely student named Audrey, but she is more interested in the hunky Jonah, whose crude yet acclaimed paintings of cars and tanks make Jerome want to tear his own eyes out.
Geoffrey Carroll (Humphrey Bogart) is a married artist who meets the lovely Sally Morton (Barbara Stanwyck) while on vacation. Hiding his marital status from Sally, Geoffrey goes on to paint a foreboding portrait of his spouse and then kills her by gradually slipping her poison. Before long, Geoffrey woos and marries Sally, but eventually he begins an eerie painting of her, as his attention shifts to the beautiful Cecily Latham (Alexis Smith). Will the deranged Geoffrey murder again?
