The Lost Van Gogh

The Lost Van Gogh, by A.J. Zerries, available in the NFCC Library.

The lost Van Gogh (or was it stolen?), Portrait of Monsieur Trabuc, is returned to its rightful heir by page 60 of this book, and I wondered, so what else could happen? It turns out that was only the beginning… The painting was stolen by the Nazis in Paris during World War II, and arrived from Argentina 60 years later. Detective Clay Ryder of the art theft squad tracks the case which involves attacks on the heiress, the Mossad, histories of Nazi atrocities, black-market art auction houses, and an SS officer believed to have been dead for twenty years. The plot gets complicated, but all the strings are wrapped up in the end, except for one….
