The art might be fake, but the danger is all too real
August, 1911: Mona Lisa is stolen by Vincent Peruggia. Exactly what happens in the two years before its recovery is a mystery. Many replicas of the Mona Lisa exist, and more than one historian has wondered if the painting now in the Louvre is a fake, switched in 1911.
Present day: art professor Luke Perrone digs for the truth behind his most famous ancestor--Peruggia. His search attracts an Interpol detective with something to prove and an unfamiliar but curiously helpful woman. Soon, Luke tumbles deep into the world of art and forgery, a land of obsession and danger.
A gripping novel exploring the 1911 theft and the present-day underbelly of the art world, The Last Mona Lisa is a suspenseful tale from a bestselling author whose own replications of iconic art are highly sought.
