FEATURED BOOK: VANISHED SMILE: THE MYSTERIOUS THEFT OF MONA LISA by R.A. SCOTTI


From the inside cover: "In Paris at the start of a radically new century, the most famous face in the history of art stepped out of her frame and into a sensational mystery.

On August 21, 1911, the unfathomable happened - Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa vanished from the Louvre.  More than twenty-four hours passed before museum officials realized she was gone.  The prime suspects were as shocking as the crime.  Pablo Picazo and Guillaume Apollinaire, young provocateurs of a new art.  As French detectives using the latest methods of ciminology, including fingerprinting, tried to trace the thieves, a burgeoning international media hyped news of the theft."

Bruce says, "I'm a big R.A. Scotti fan.  I've read three of Scotti's books and thoroughly enjoyed them all.  VANISHED SMILE is a delicious tale of intrigue, history, art and detail.  I recommend VANISHED SMILE to anyone regardless of your preferred genera in literature."
