Waking Raphael (Hardcover) by Leslie Forbes(Author)Hardcover:374 pagesPublisher:McArthur & Co / Orion Con Trad (Aug 28 2003)Language:EnglishISBN-10:029782984XISBN-13:978-0297829843Product Dimensions:23.4 x 16 x 3.8 cmFrom BooklistForbes' latest departs from India， the setting of her previous literary thrillers--Bombay Ice(1998) andFish， Blood and Bone(2001)--and moves to idyllic Urbino， Italy， birthplace of Renaissance painter Raphael. Deftly exploring connections between art， religion， and politics， Forbes layers her mystery with lush imagery and palpable human drama. When the Raphael painting that she is commissioned to work on is attacked， Charlotte Penton， a prim English divorcee and art restorer， finds herself embroiled in a plot involving deadly secrets and betrayals from the past. As Charlotte and her rival， the sexy Canadian Donna， look for answers in the painting， they become entangled in the mystery of San Rocco， a village whose destruction during World War II hides another sordid secret protected by powerful men. Numerous digressions on such matters as the mechanics of hoax miracles and Italian cuisine add flavor and depth to the novel but also diminish the suspense. A good choice for fans of Arturo Perez-Reverte and Iain Pears or for the Italy-bound.Misha StoneCopyright ? American Library Association.

The novel will captivate and delight."--Publishers Weekly， starred review"Transcends the limitations of the genre with ease， not merely because of the author's prodigious erudition， polished prose style and sophistication as a storyteller， but because she has created a character one cares about....A learned whodunit in the tradition of The Name of the Rose."--TheWall Street JournalonFish， Blood & Bone"Beguiling entertainment."--TheWashington PostonFish， Blood & Bone"Gives new meaning to the term "intelligent page-turner.""--Kirkus ReviewsonFish， Blood & Bone"Lavish and sexy...conveys a sense of India so rich that it ceases to seem a mere country."--TheNew York TimesBook Review onBombay Ice"A riveting murder mystery...complex and vastly entertaining...the toughest， most sympathetic heroine since SMILLA'S SENSE OF SNOW."--Harper's Bazaaron Bombay Ice
