DEAD DROP
‘A lyrical, daring thriller that hurls you into the dark world of art theft with unexpected insights.’
Stephanie Carty, author of Shattered
‘Malby’s novel proves once and for all that thrillers can be both hugely compelling and beautifully written. This is virtuosic storytelling, as vibrant as a Klimt painting, as lyrical as a Viennese waltz, as atmospheric as a Carol Reed film. I loved it.’
Jonathan P Taylor, author and Senior Lecturer in Creative Writing, University of Leicester
‘An exquisitely written, poetic journey through the underbelly of Vienna’s artworld, Dead Drop is littered with secrets and laced with tension. F C Malby is a writer to watch!’
Jane Isaac, best-selling author of crime thrillers
A fast-paced, intelligent thriller that exposes the undercover world of art heists and takes us on a roller-coaster ride through Vienna’s renowned galleries and museums as skilled art thief, Leisl, steals and returns paintings to private collectors. Until she comes up against a truth that makes her question everything she knows.
