Book description
At a meeting in East London, art dealer Catherine Lacy is shown six
paintings from a previously undiscovered artist, Aristide Bertrand, who
moved in the same circles as Van Gogh. She is enormously excited, but
her husband, security expert Tim Lacy, is less than thrilled when the
agent concerned is fished out of the Thames.
Despite the danger, and swayed by the potential importance of this
discovery, Lacy finally agrees that their new associate, Emma Kerr,
should go to Provence - with veteran George Martin to keep an eye on
her. Within days, Emma is abducted, and Lacy himself must go looking for
her. But each time he gets a step closer to finding Emma, a new mystery
comes to light, and finally he is faced with a terrifying new foe: the
Camargue Brotherhood, who are prepared to protect Bertrand's work at any
cost... After graduating from Cambridge, Derek Wilson spent several
years travelling and teaching before becoming a full-time writer,
broadcaster and author of historical non-fiction. As well as many
non-fiction publications, he has written several fictional mysteries,
which include the Tim Lacy and Nathaniel Gye series.
