Stealing The Scream
On a frozen February morning in 1994, two men in a stolen car skidded to a halt in front of Norway's National Art Museum. They raced across the snow and grabbed the ladder they had stashed away the night before. Two minutes later, they roared off. Wedged behind the driver sat one of the most valuable paintings in the world, Edvard Munch's The Scream. Baffled and humiliated, the Norwegian police called on the world's greatest art detective, Charley Hill, a half-English, half-American undercover policeman and the book's most compelling character. Winner of the 2006 Edgar Allan Poe Award for Best Factual Crime book in the US.
