When is a tall, blond and beautiful not just what one might think she is a dumb blond?
When she is Vicky Bliss that's when. She is one tough cookie and she knows her fine works of art too.
Vicky works for Herr Professor Doktor Schmidt at Munich's National Museum as an art historian. Her latest adventure in Trojan Gold is about a picture maybe worth a 1,000 words but more likely a 1,000 questions.
"At first glance it appears to be the famous portrait of Frau Schliemann adorned in the gold of Troy. But closer study reveals the picture to be contemporary--which is odd since Vicky knows the Trojan gold vanished sometime around the end of World War Two. And is she needed further proof that something is terribly amiss, a quick look at the bloodstained envelope the photos arrived in should do the trick."
I have enjoyed Ms. Peters Amelia Peabody series and believe I have read most of those stories, so when I saw the stories she wrote about Vicky Bliss I was curious and most certainly not disappointed. Her characters are so 'real' and the stories very entertaining.
I would recommend anything Elizabeth Peters writes. She tells great stories.
