A Glancing Light is the second in Aaron Elkins' too-short IMO Chris Norgren series. It's on sale right now for $0.99/£0.89 in the US/UK, and it's discountable at Kobo. These are Open Road titles, but go on sale more often at $1.99, so I thought I'd go ahead and post the lower price...

Quote:
A museum curator travels to Italy and looks into a murder in this “fresh, funny [and] thoroughly enjoyable mystery” by the author of the Gideon Oliver series (Publishers Weekly).

Mild‑mannered and law‑abiding, Chris Norgren, curator of Renaissance and Baroque art at the Seattle Art Museum, is an unlikely undercover investigator, but when a priceless Rubens portrait is discovered in a shipment of “authentic reproductions” in a local warehouse, Chris is pressed into service to find out how it got there. The quest leads him to the medieval city of Bologna, one of his favorite places, but all too soon what might have been a welcome Italian interlude turns into a bizarre journey into shady art world doings and murderous secrets . . .
