"The discovery of a lost Caravaggio painting yields centuries of deadly secrets in this pulse-pounding novel of historical intrigue and modern-day suspense... In seventeenth-century Rome, artist Caravaggio drinks and brawls his way through his violent, insatiable life, all while painting some of the world's greatest religious works of art. Now, in the village of Monte Piccolo, a priest claims to have discovered a lost painting by the famed artist in the storage room of an orphanage. Retired professor A. R. Richman believes it's a delusional dream. But Lucia, a visiting art student, convinces him otherwise and recruits her best friend, Moto, to join in the quest. But tracing its provenance back four hundred years could prove to be just as treacherous as the master's final days. Richman, Lucia, and Moto begin chasing the mystery, uncovering a blood feud hidden for years that has now spilled into the twenty-first century. As they follow where it leads - down a trail of murder, betrayal, and vengeance - they find a secret history that someone will kill to keep buried"--from Back cover.
