A sleuth searching for a lost map uncovers historical controversy in this thriller ""as smart and well written as it is inventive, original, and surprising"" (M.J. Rose, New York Timesbestselling author of The Reincarnationist).

Mara Coyne has a reputation as an art sleuth after successfully reuniting stolen art with its rightful owners. But when her latest client hires her to recover a centuries-old map that has gone missing from an archaeological dig in China, her keen intuition tells her that the client's intentions are far from pure. As she follows the trail of the map's history from Ming Dynasty origins to the map's reappearance aboard the ship of explorer Vasco da Gama, Mara realizes the map is more valuable than she ever imagined. And that its recovery could reveal some shattering truths some would do anything to silence.

Weaving rich historical detail and astounding facts, The Map Thief is a riveting thriller that takes readers on an epic international journey through the criminal underworld of stolen artifacts.

""Provocative, well-documented, and evocative."" -Javier Sierra, New York Timesbestselling author of The Secret Supper
