This is a standalone book by Steve Berry--he is the writer of the Cotton Malone series that I read. This one is similar to those but instead of Cotton and a sort of team, it is loner sort that works for a UN group dealing with art issues. The woman he loves and was engaged to, broke it off & joined a convent. She is restoring an important piece of art and has invited him to visit, while he is there the art piece is destroyed and the follows the ladies that did this and becomes involved in a whole investigation. A couple countries and throw in the Vatican as well and some bad guy Dominicans and some questionable motives of this other convent and there you go. Not a bad read but characters were not very exciting and story was in many ways predictable. Not sure if he will make this new guy a series but would need to improve to keep my attention.
There are like 30 WL for this book so I will post & send off at some point but have plenty of credits and try to avoid post office at this time of the year so no hurry.
