"CHARLESGATE CONFIDENTIAL is terrific" - Stephen King
A sharp and funny tale of a daring art heist gone wrong--inspired by
the same real-life, still-unsolved crime depicted in the Netflix hit
series "This Is A Robbery."
A group of criminals in 1946 pull off the heist of the century, stealing
a dozen priceless works of art from a Boston museum. But while the
thieves get caught, the art is never found. Forty years later, the last
surviving thief gets out of jail and goes hunting for the loot,
involving some innocent college students in his dangerous plan - and
thirty years after that, in the present day, the former college kids,
now all grown up, are drawn back into danger as the still-missing art
tempts a deadly new generation of treasure hunters. A breathtakingly
clever, twist-filled narrative that moves from 1946 to 1988 to 2014 and
back again, CHARLESGATE CONFIDENTIAL establishes Scott Von Doviak as a
storyteller of the first order, and will leave you guessing until the
very last page.
