Similar in style to Dan Brown, but without the addictive page-turning quality. Charney has absolutely no ear for dialogue, and the book often degenerates into first-year art history lectures disguised as exposition. Mediocre.

Excellent art history mystery.

A fascinating peek into the world of art, involving both art history and the forensics of recovering lost art.
