Description
On secondment to Interpol's Art Investigation Unit, Patrice Lanier must solve an intriguing puzzle. A painting found on a Finnish rubbish dump may be by Artemisia Gentileschi, contemporary of Caravaggio and friend of Galileo.
With the help of art historian, Chloe Valery, the Finnish Police, and a gaggle of Italian art experts, Patrice must establish the truth. If the picture is genuinely by the renaissance artist, it could be worth more than $5 million, if it's a forgery, it must be destroyed by fire.
Will Patrice be responsible for the destruction of an extraordinary work of art, based only on an uncertain provenance ... or will he discover it's an unknown masterpiece?

Featured Reviews

Elizabeth Mostyn uses Finland only as a place where a painting is found in a dump painted by Artemisia Gentileschi. Then you end up in France with Patrice as the main character, and Hôtel des Jardins, in Paris where an American preacher was killed by being thrown out of a 6th story window. And then at the same time men who are praying on young girls in a group with women trying to end this. Patrice is the main man who is trying to authenticate the Artemisia painting and at the same time trying to find the killer of the preacher with the help of Chloë who has been transferred to his Paris location by Interpol. His team finds out what the men were doing and works with the women who were trying to get the men arrested only to find out the women pushed the preacher out the window by mistake. It's mostly in France with many French words used.
