Publisher's Synopsis
FIVE STARS - Review by Viga Boland for Readers' Favorite
What is it about this author's writing that has garnered him so much praise and recognition? Well, it didn't take me long to find out. As unfamiliar as I am with the world of art, DiSilvio hooked me quickly with his superb writing skills, his sense of humor, his easy dialogue and his amazing descriptions of not just the art but the art museums and his own obvious enjoyment of his protagonist, Armand Arnolfini.
Armand is former FBI, now a private detective and an art connoisseur. So it's only sensible that when valuable pieces of art suddenly go missing people call on Arnolfini.
Don't miss a chance to learn a lot about what you might not know or haven't yet considered while being marvelously entertained by a brilliant writer!

From multi-award-winning author/artist Rich DiSilvio is this riveting collection of six mysteries, each handsomely illustrated.
Follow the charismatic and clever private eye, Armand Arnolfini, as he investigates a variety of suspenseful art crimes and confronts a dazzling array of thieves, forgers, and even ruthless murderers.
Arnolfini's manhunts take him from New York to Italy, Belgium, Germany and beyond in his quest to unravel a series of perplexing mysteries, while also seeking to preserve a broad spectrum of great art and artifacts that have made indelible imprints upon Western civilization.
Each case is a stand-alone episode, yet are arranged chronologically, thereby creating a harmonious and sweeping narrative from Armand's first intriguing case to his last.
Contents: The Phantom Forger; The Russian Link; The P.T. Barnum Mystery; The Mark Twain Mystery; The Yoko, Oh No! Mystery; and the Ghent Mystery.
