Description
The Modigliani Scandal by Ken Follett
Inarguably one of the greatest artists who ever lived. Modigliani’s women: those elongated, haunting figures, as eternally provocative as the Mona Lisa. And Modigliani’s missing masterpiece: a priceless lost treasure – or a chillingly dangerous game?
Up-and-coming artist Peter Usher has still to exhibit anywhere, still to make even the most modest mark on the London art scene. But as rumour about the missing masterpiece turns to reality, Usher finds himself caught up in a race to uncover the shadowy figures behind a breathtaking scam. Will artistic genius ever be rewarded? Will the brush prove more deadly than the gun…?
