"""Beauty and horror are wonderfully contrasted by Santlofer, both in the sad life of van Gogh compared to the incandescent art he produced, and in the clash of the love of art and the pursuit of wealth that takes advantage of that passion. Details of post-impressionist art and busting of myths around van Gogh (he wasn't unknown as an artist during his life) are bonuses."" -- First Clue ""The Lost Van Gogh is a can't miss novel of unforgettable suspense. Santlofer masterfully blends his art world expertise with a game of obsessions, razor-sharp characterization and thrilling prose to create a novel unlike any other--a riveting mystery that explores the weight of family and high-stakes art theft."" -- Alex Segura, bestselling author of Secret Identity ""The Lost Van Gogh is a kaleidoscope--a globetrotting thriller, a lesson in art history, a reminder of a crime against humanity that will never be expunged, but most of all a tremendously entertaining read."" -- Joseph Finder, New York Times bestselling author of House on Fire ""Packed with international artworld intrigue and utterly delicious plot-twists, Santlofer keeps readers riveted in this intelligent and wonderfully textured thriller."" -- John Searles, New York Times bestselling author of Her Last Affair and Help for the Haunted ""Perfectly paced and plotted, The Lost Van Gogh seamlessly weaves together a mystery of unrelenting suspense with a fascinating tale about art and the dangerously criminal culture that surrounds it. A terrific read--one that only Jonathan Santlofer could have written!"" -- Alafair Burke, New York Times bestselling author ""Ingeniously plotted, irresistibly readable, brimming with inside information about the high-stakes art world of theft, forgery, and murder, Jonathan Santlofer's The Lost Van Gogh tracks the history of a missing self-portrait by Van Gogh against the background of the notorious Nazi campaign against ""degenerate art."" Also included are brilliantly rendered drawings by the author, who is as accomplished an artist as he is a writer of suspense thrillers."" -- Joyce Carol Oates"
