The Cross Double: An Art Heist Caper

The Cross Double: An Art Heist Caper

Steven Scott
0/5 ( ratings)
The Cross Double charts a year in the life of 70-year-old Harry Cross, who thinks he’s losing his marbles but comes to realise that he is really suffering from grief following the death of his funny, clever wife. So he decides to get a grip by heading off to Europe to look at art on a sort of geriatric Grand Tour.

His journey has barely started when he meets Juliet, the widow of an American billionaire, on an Amsterdam canal boat. She reveals that she is out to exact revenge on a dangerous man who cheated her husband out of a valuable picture from the Dutch Golden Age. She wants it back, no matter what the cost, and she wants Harry’s help.

Not wanting to be left out of the caper is Harry’s honorary granddaughter Bill, a bright and sparky National Gallery attendant with an encyclopaedic knowledge of art.

The Cross Double touches on death, grief, apparitions, greed, revenge and priceless art. It's a book with a light touch and at its heart is a story of friendship and new beginnings.
