Arnolfini Art Mysteries 2 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781950052066)

Private investigator Armand Arnolfini springs back into action as he engages a new array of baffling art mysteries in this second installment in the Arnolfini Art Mysteries series.

Continuing chronologically from his previous escapades, Armand teams up with his new wife, Andrea, to confront sly art forgers, black market racketeers, and ruthless killers, while seeking to recover great works of art and solve old mysteries surrounding famous architecture.

Join the Arnolfinis as they hunt down Leonardo's lost Leda and the Swan, works by the sculptor Jean Carpeaux, famous architects, engage in a double murder at the Poe Cottage Museum, and track down an unknown work by the shunned female Baroque artist Artemisia Gentileschi.

Artemisia receives special attention in a chapter that brings personal meaning to the Arnolfinis' own lives. Especially in today's world of the #MeToo movement, Artemisia's own rape and determination to win respect and equal treatment offers readers a poignant and powerful tale.

Meanwhile, DiSilvio's rich narratives and colorful characters bring together five linked cases to form one sweeping novel of Arnolfini's perpetual quest to save great works of art from falling into oblivion.

Entertaining and enlightening, Arnolfini Art Mysteries 2 is handsomely accompanied by photos of famous paintings and illustrations by the author/artist, making this series a visual feast as well as a riveting collection of art mysteries. (TopShelf Winner for Best Cover Art)
