In Lewis’ mystery novel, antiquities expert Arnold Landon has tracked down an ancient statuette of Artemis straight to one of Europe’s most infamous art thieves. Locating the item for an artifact-recovery organization will help him make history! But when the thief is brutally murdered and the artifact disappears, Arnold discovers a dark back story accompanying the work of art. Sorting out clues and bureaucratic obstruction, two more deaths occur putting his career on the line and forcing him to face down a merciless adversary for his very life.

A fast-paced hard to put down addition to An Arnold Landon Mystery. ( )
