SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Natalie Lemle discusses & signs Artifacts
DESCRIPTION:For readers of The Cloisters and Counterfeit\, Natalie Lemle’s debut novel offers an insider’s view into the world of stolen artifacts and the hidden networks that link museums to organized crime\, when a woman is forced to remember the summer she spent on an archaeological dig in Italy\, as everyone she knew then may now be in danger. \nSuccessful trusts and estates attorney Lena Connolly is asked by a colleague to assist on a case: the Italian government claims an artifact was looted and sold to a museum illegally\, and is seeking repatriation. The object in question is a cup made of dichroic glass\, which would have been rare even in Ancient Rome\, let alone thousands of years later. \nLena has done everything she can to put the study abroad summer she spent on an archaeological dig in the Italian Alps behind her. Her dreams of being an archaeologist were shattered when her mentor\, Cyrille\, disappeared\, and her enigmatic boyfriend Giamma went dark\, but with this new case\, the past comes roaring back. \nTold in alternating timelines\, Artifacts follows young Lena as she falls in love with both archaeology and Giamma on the streets of Torino while her adult self pieces together what truly happened on the dig\, now a fully restored Roman villa with World Heritage status. The dichroic cup\, Lena discovers\, may have been taken from the very site she helped unearth. \nPowerful and exuberant\, Natalie Lemle’s Artifacts brings readers behind the museum glass and asks questions about cultural heritage and the historical preservation of our shared sense of humanity.
