The Fuhrer's Reserve: A Novel of the FBI - Hardcover

It's hard to find a new angle on old Nazis, particularly those with cryptic deathbed clues to Hitler's buried treasure. But the current cultural preoccupation with the cloudy provenance of art masterpieces in many of the world's great museums, most notably those that disappeared from the collections of Jews in the 1930s and '40s, makes Lindsay's newest thriller especially relevant. FBI agent Taz Fallon retrieves a Chicago millionaire's son from kidnappers--a man with ties to militant Jewish organizations the Bureau would like to penetrate. But first the man wants another favor from Taz: finding a cache of masterpieces hidden across the Midwest decades ago by a mysterious man known as the Curator. The Curator has hired ruthless killers to retrieve the paintings, which will be sold to finance the resurgence of Nazism. Sivia, a beautiful young art historian who joins forces with Taz, has her own reasons for trying to beat them to the treasure. Deciphering the coded clues in one painting to the location of the next, Taz and Sivia catch up to the killers in a bloody, exciting denouement, but the real shocker is the Curator's identity, which will surprise even the most attentive reader. This dramatic, fast-paced story has an intriguing, iconoclastic hero, a plot as right now as today's headlines, and a solid grounding in the author's own 20 years with the FBI. --Jane Adams
