"An armchair travelers delight"-Publishers Weekly One dead art
collector and a gallery of suspects. This romantic weekend just
turned deadly... Translator Rick Montoya is looking forward to a
quiet weekend away with his girlfriend, Betta, an art fraud
investigator for the Italian Culture Ministry. Their destination:
the beautiful village of Urbino, home to Renaissance masters Rafael
and the lesser-known Piero della Francesca. While Betta does have
official business to attend to-namely, collecting a priceless Piero
drawing from a wealthy Spanish collector on the ministry's
behalf-she asks Rick to join her "in case she needs an
interpreter," but with other, less-official intentions in mind.
When the Spaniard is found murdered and the drawing stolen, Betta
must shift back into art cop mode, and Rick's official services are
required after all. As they set out to discover the identity of the
killer and the whereabouts of the stolen sketch, they are drawn
from Urbino's cobbled streets to eastern Tuscany and back as the
list of suspects grows longer-and more dangerous. Will this lovers'
getaway literally be to die for? This captivating crime fiction
novel is perfect for armchair travel, transporting you right to
Italy with vivid descriptions of the scenery, food, and wine. To
Die in Tuscany is sure to delight those interested in international
crime mysteries, police procedurals, and fans of art and the
Renaissance period will appreciate learning more about Raphael and
Piero della Francesca. Also in the Rick Montoya Italian Mysteries:
