Title: The shroud
First published: 2009
Description: "The man on the other end of the phone should have been dead. Sir Henri Lipton, wanted on three continents for looting and smuggling art and precious antiquities, had destroyed Madison Dupre's career before supposedly kicking the bucket. Dupre, a drop-dead gorgeous art investigator, had hoped he was burning in hell. With her reputation in shreds, her bank accounts empty, and creditors pounding down her door, Dupre has not choice but to listen. Twenty-thousand-dollars cash--upfront--just for a little trip to Dubai, he tells her, a quick look at a piece of art. And the art is two thousand years old and was "buried with Christ." Dupre is hooked ... even though her gut tells her there has to be a catch"--Inside cover.
