A coffee-table style book packed full of images, it sure hits the mark with its subject matter. It feels a little disorganised, and I would've preferred a more uniform arrangement of text and images. Even the writing feels a little disorderly, but it doesn't distract from the overall experience. It does what it says on the tin and then some. I'll give props to the use of many images as well, which (thankfully) are numerous and peppered throughout.

Art Heist is a non-fiction book written very well. This book is about stolen artworks, and why and how they were stolen.
Where are they? Who might have stolen them?
You can both enjoy learning about these stolen artworks and have the chance to look at them, and also enjoy being a detective.

This title marries my interests in art and true crime. This book is loaded with short synopsis of the crimes along with images of the art, and other visuals such as police sketches, crime photos etc.

The book covers art throughout the globe and is written in a digestible way. From sculpture to painting, there are loads of crimes and art pieces to learn about in this unique non-fiction title.
