Dead Drop

A tense thriller from the People's Prize winner F C Malby, author of Take Me To the Castle and My Brother Was a Kangaroo.

Liesl is an art thief and an exceptionally good one. She steals priceless paintings from Vienna's art galleries and delivers them to wealthy private collectors. This life of anonymous notes and meticulous planning, of adrenaline-fuelled dead drops and dramatic escapes, suits her restless spirit and desire for solitude and anonymity. But when Leisl finds a body on Stephansplatz underground steps instead of the expected note, she understands that she's involved in a deadly game and that her own life is in danger. This fast-paced, intelligent thriller exposes the undercover world of art heists and takes us on a journey through Vienna's galleries and museums
