About the book

JACKET NOTES (http://italian-mysteries.com/IP04.html): When art dealer Jonathan Argyll agreed to transport the Death of Socrates from a gallery in Paris to its new owner In Rome, he had no idea that such a worthless, nondescript painting would cause such a stir. First someone tries to steal it from him in a train station. Then the man he's delivering it to decides he doesn’t want it--and is brutally murdered a few hours later. Now Argyll is stuck with a painting that only the most tasteless collector could love... and he finds himself right in the middle of a murder investigation. With the bodies piling up, he must investigate the dark secrets in the paintings past--before someone with truly horrible taste decides to put him out of the picture for good...

First sentence: Jonathan Argyll stared transfixed at the scene of violence that suddenly presented itself as he turned around.
