520    A decaying palazzo on a hilltop near the Adriatic coast, 
       and in the basement, cobwebbed and dusty, an archive 
       unknown to scholars. Here, a young graduate student from 
       Rome makes a discovery that inspires a search for a 
       painting lost for almost two centuries. The artist was 
       Caravaggio, a revolutionary painter beset by personal 
       demons. Four hundred years ago, he drank and brawled in 
       the taverns and streets of Rome, in and out of jail, all 
       the while painting transcendent works. He rose from 
       obscurity to fame and wealth, but success didn't alter his
       violent temperament. He died young, alone, and under 
       strange circumstances. Caravaggio scholars estimate that 
       between sixty and eighty of his works are in existence 
       today. Many others--no one knows the precise number--have 
       been lost to time. Somewhere, surely, a masterpiece lies 
       forgotten. This quest is a synthesis of history and 
       detective story.--From publisher description.
