Best-Selling Author Releases Captivating Tale around Historic Gardner Museum RobberyIn "Isabella's Painting," DC lobbyist Karina Cardinal quickly finds out curiosity can be a killer. The story around the infamous robbery of the Gardner Museum is book one of a new mystery series by best-selling novelist Ellen Butler.
By: Ellen Butler, Author The Gardner museum robbery is considered one of the highest valued thefts of private property in history. FBI agents, investigative reporters, professional art recovery specialists, and amateur detectives have spent hundreds of man hours trying to locate the paintings. Karina Cardinal, a lawyer with a sharp wit, and a curiosity to rival Jessica Fletcher, stumbles across something she shouldn't, and her subsequent actions lead her down a dangerous path. According to retired FBI Special Agent Robert K. Wittman, Founder of the FBI Art Crime Team and New York Times bestselling author of Priceless: How I Went Undercover to Rescue the World's Stolen Treasures, "Isabella's Painting takes the reader on a rollicking ride through the high-stakes world of art thieves and the investigators who work to get them back... it is a fast-paced, entertaining and engrossing fictional exposé of the shady underbelly of the art world." In the words of an InD'tale Magazine review, "The creative take on documented historical events enriches the reader, and the descriptions make one feel drawn into the tale. Karina has a lot of spunk and doesn't put up with a lot of nonsense, making her a character that one can get behind. The relational conflict is riveting, making the reader eager for the next book in the series."
