Publication: Macmillan, 2008, London

First edition. Fine in dust jacket. In a hidden studio in an area of Rome, where the Vatican liked to keep an eye on the city's prostitutes, an art expert from the Louvre is found dead in front of one of the most beautiful paintings that Nic Costa has ever seen - an unknown Caravaggio masterpiece. Before long, tragedy will strike Nic far closer to home. The main suspect's identity is known, but he remains untouchable protected in his grand palazzo by lawyers and a sinister cult known as the Ekstasists. If Costa and his team can crack the reasons for the cult's existence, he may stand a chance of nailing his wife's killer. The mystery will take him right back to Caravaggio himself and the reasons he had to flee Rome, all those centuries before.
