Sleuth by Philip Mould
CSI meets Who Do You Think You Are? meets Time Team meets The Antiques Roadshow. Two-dimensional works of art become three-dimensional thrillers.“Reviewing can make you hate books – the grim spectre of the copy deadline means that other tasks (cleaning the fridge is popular) can seem attractive compared with just getting on reading the bookSleuth was different. I could not wait to get back to it” Sunday Telegraph
‘timely … exciting’ Country Life
‘a fast-paced and fascinating account of the race to uncover ‘lost’ treasures’ Independent on Sunday
‘this absorbing and fast-paced narrative … an extremely enjoyable read’ British Art Journal
‘This is no dry treatise and Mould is a first-class scene setter … There is an immediacy to much of the writing, which draws the reader in … the sort of book that may well do more to attract future talent to the world of art dealing than any number of university art history courses’ Antiques Trade Gazette
