More from Vicky Bliss – the new heroine from the creator of the bestselling Amelia Peabody series
A picture is worth a thousand words – but the photograph art historian Vicky Bliss has just received gives rise to a thousand questions instead. A quick glance at the blood-stained envelope is all the proof she needs that something is horribly wrong. The photo itself is familiar: a woman adorned in the gold of Troy. Yet this isn’t the famous photograph of Frau Schliemann – this photo is contemporary. And the gold, as Vicky and her fellow academics know – disappeared at the end of World War II. And now this circle of experts is gathered for a festive Bavarian Christmas – including a very determined killer.
