The Lost Van Gogh
About the Book
The Lost Van Gogh
From the author of the much-praised THE LAST MONA LISA comes another thrilling story of masterpieces, masterminds and mystery.
For years, there have been whispers that, before his death, Van Gogh completed a final self-portrait. Curators and art historians have savored this rumor, hoping it could illuminate some of the troubled artist's many secrets, but even they have to concede that the missing painting is likely lost forever.
But when Luke Perrone, artist and great-grandson of the man who stole the Mona Lisa, and Alexis Verde, daughter of a notorious art thief, discover what may be the missing portrait, they are drawn into a most epic art puzzle. When only days later the painting disappears again, they are reunited with INTERPOL agent John Washington Smith in a dangerous and deadly search that will not only expose secrets of the artist's last days but draw them into one of history's darkest eras.
Beneath the paint and canvas, beneath the beauty and the legend, the artwork has become linked with something evil, something that continues to flourish on the dark web and on the shadiest corridors of the underground art world.
Alternating between Luke Perrone's perilous hunt for the painting, and a history of stolen art and stolen lives, THE LOST VAN GOGH is an intricately layered historical thriller perfect for fans of THE LAST MONA LISA and THE NIGHT PORTRAIT.
