MICHAEL GRUBER
Saturday, April 26 at 7:30 p.m.

Bestselling Seattle novelist Michael Gruber makes this welcome return with his newest, perhaps most-praised psychological mystery yet, The Forgery of Venus (Morrow). "Gruber is on a roll. Not even a year after The Book of Air and Shadows, he delivers another terrific art-historical thriller, this time not about an undiscovered Shakespeare play but a forged Velázquez painting—or is it really a forgery? ... Mixed in with the plot twists and suspense—mostly psychological this time—are both fascinating details about art forgery and thought-provoking conversations about art and morality. It's a tale within a tale within a tale ... Once again, Gruber mines a popular vein and strikes gold." - Keir Graff, Booklist.
