A Deceptive Clarity is the first in the Chris Norgren series by Aaron Elkins, better known for his much longer Gideon Oliver series. It has dropped to $1.99 at Kindle US and Kobo US (couponable). This series focuses on the art world, and, IMS, there are no bones...but it's IMO still quite an enjoyable series.

Spoiler:

Chris Norgren, museum curator and Renaissance art expert, heads to Berlin to assist in mounting a sensational exhibit: The Plundered Past—twenty priceless Old Masters looted by the Nazis, thought for decades to be lost forever, and only recently rediscovered. But things quickly get out of hand when Chris’s patrician, fastidious boss, after smelling a forgery in the lot, turns up dead the very next day—on the steps of a dismal Frankfurt brothel, of all places. Now Chris faces two daunting tasks: finding a fake painting among the masterpieces and a real killer whose sights are now set on him.
