Very different to 'An Instance of the Fingerpost' (the other book by Pears that I've recommended). This is the first in an ongoing series of art world thrillers featuring General Bottando of the Italian Art Theft Squad, his assistant Flavia di Stefano and the Englishman, Jonathan Argyll. If you enjoy this one, you can look forward to (at the last count) five more.
