Artemis Bagley Plain and simple -- Artemis Bagley is bad news. A snake in a leather jacket who's slithered out from under a rock in a bad place with the sole intention of blackmailing his brother -- now Lucien Brandt -- over past sins, Artemis has arrived in New York from God-knows-where, and is flirting with disaster. He may have pushed Lucien a little too far... and was killed for his trouble -- much to Lucien's surprise.
