The Last Supper
THE PERFECT HEIST. TWO LOVERS. A MASTERPIECE.
A mysterious note is found together with chips of paint and canvas alongside the empty frame of a famous painting. The thief left a message behind. He promises to do it again next year.
Visiting Santa Maria delle Grazie’s church in Milan a young woman falls in love with a charismatic millionaire. But when several months later she is approached by an old teacher, Sofia is faced with an unexpected dilemma. Should she denounce the man she is bound to marry or become an accomplice of this irresistible art thief?
A game of catch and release, life or death, begins as the couple gets closer. And soon what at first seemed like a fairy tale turns itself into a living nightmare while a bold and meticulous plan is plotted to steal Leonardo da Vinci’s masterpiece.
Intimate and inspired by true events, The Last Supper introduces us into the exquisite world of art. Moving between settings such as London and Milan, showcasing a unique collection of characters to whom ambition and fame value the most, this is a sophisticated page turner that will guide you through a surprising web of lies, love and betrayal.
