The charming Eduardo de Valfierno makes a very respectable living in Argentina fleecing the nouveau rich - they pay him to steal valuable pieces of art, and Valfierno sells them flawless forgeries instead. But when Eduardo meets the beautiful Mrs. Hart on his latest con, he takes a risk that forces him back to the city he loved and left behind - Paris. There he assembles his team of con artists for their final and most ambitious theft, one that will enable them to leave the game forever: The Mona Lisa.
But when a member of the team turns up missing, and Mr. Hart shows up in Paris, Valfierno and his crew must stay one step ahead of a relentless police inspector, endure a devastating flood, and conquer their own doubts to keep the priceless painting in play - and survive.
Based on the actual 1911 theft of the Mona Lisa, Stealing Mona Lisa is a dazzling and sophisticated caper that will keep you guessing until the very end.

Klappentext zu „Stealing Mona Lisa “
Stealing Mona Lisa is a caper mystery, anchored by the actual 1911 theft of the Mona Lisa from the Louvre. R.C. Morton uses the facts of that case as a skeleton and fills in the details with a richly imagined group of con artists, a forger who turns to a future as a famous artist, an American pickpocket and a love affair that crosses oceans.
