At a fair price that values the time and skill of the artist. Ok I'll stop now :)
I would buy that. #JustSayin

Image of book entitled "We Solve Murders" by Richard Osman who is described as "Bestselling author of The Thursday Murder Club". There is an image of a cat sitting on the end of a gun on the book.
