A museum curator travels to Italy and looks into a murder in this mystery by the Edgar Award–winning author of the Gideon Oliver series. Mild‑mannered and law‑abiding, Chris Norgren, curator of Renaissance and Baroque art at the Seattle Art Museum, is an unlikely undercover investigator, but when a priceless Rubens portrait is discovered in a shipment of "authentic reproductions" in a local warehouse, Chris is pressed into service to find out how it got there. The quest leads him to the medieval city of Bologna, one of his favorite places, but all too soon what might have been a welcome Italian interlude turns into a bizarre journey into shady art world doings and murderous secrets . . . "Lots of action, lots of painterly lore . . . Elkins thoroughly understands the art of the murder mystery." —The Philadelphia Inquirer Chris Norgren Mystery series A Deceptive Clarity (#1) A Glancing Light (#2) Old Scores (#3)
