Arnolfini Art Mysteries 2Arnolfini Art Mysteries 2 by Rich DiSilvio
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Armand Arnolfini, Art Detective is back in action after the first set of stories in the previous book. This time, Armand is joined in his detective work by his new wife Andrea and together they tackle some of the worlds most oddest and mysterious art crimes. As with the first book, the author has broken each story line into their own chapters, five in this book which can be read in any order, but I do suggest that you read them as presented. Some plot points in later chapters make the most sense if you have read the previous ones. The book starts us at the couples wedding in the Saint Bavo Cathedral in Belgium and takes us on a wild ride across the art world, from Leonardo De Vinci to Orazio Gentileschi, a Baroque Artist. The addition of Angela was a refreshing portion if the stories and I enjoyed reading about Armand again. As with the first book, this is a well written blend of art mysteries and crime.
