"Emma felt herself perspiring, dizzy, her heart pounding as she was dragged along. She stumbled, blind with the covering over her head, not sure what her footing was nor where she was being taken. Desperately trying to take note of her surroundings, she counted twenty footsteps, then felt something hard underfoot as the hands grasping her arms shoved her in an abrupt turn to the left. That meant they had left the gallery where the Piero della Francesca s were displayed for the corridor. Her entire body trembled with fright." Alice Heard Williams has done it again! The heroine of Pensione Anastasia, American Emma Darling, now an art history teacher at a girls" school in London, leads her students to Tuscany to follow the Piero Trail looking at paintings by Piero della Francesca. They quickly become witnesses to an art heist, kidnapping and threats of bodily harm. Emma almost loses her heart to the charming brown-eyed Italian Inspector Luigi Rovere, but her friend Dr. Sam MacGregor arrives from Scotland to restore calm and balance along with help in recovery of the missing masterpiece. A must read for those who love mystery and art and have been captured by the response to great paintings in Alice Heard Williams' previous works.

A painting by the Renaissance artist Carpaccio has disappeared from the collection of the late Lord William Elmley, an Englishman who lived in Venice for many years, and the engaging American art historian Emma Darling is determined to find it. Art thieves come sniffing and a battle of wills ensues. Emma’s new friends Riccardo and Vittoria struggle with her to discover and protect the missing masterpiece. Led by Venice Police Inspector Luigi Dario and aided by Dr. Sam McGregor, she struggles, her bravery sorely tested. Follow her and her companions as they visit the Lido, Venice’s island of beaches, the artisan haven of Dorsoduro, raucous open-air markets of the Rialto, and the sleepy island of Torcello—all in search of the painting. As surely as the gondolas skim the Grand Canal, this gripping book will keep you at the edge of your seat as suspense proliferates with each flip of the page. Comments "Emma has replaced Miss Marple in my life! Good for you, Alice!" — Charlotte Jacobs, California "I absolutely loved the book. Most of the places were familiar to me and the few others, I found with Mapquest. It was like a trip to Venice, and I said as much on my Facebook page. I also appreciate the readable print. Three of my granddaughters visited Venice last summer and I know they'll love the book too!" — Terry Stacy, Kentucky "I'm so excited to read Tracking the Carpaccio and to order the other two books of the trilogy." — Amanda H. Fields, Minnesota "Most of all we need to find Signorina Darling!" With those words from Police Inspector Luigi Dario I gave my heart to the search for Emma Darling. Building on the literary appeal of Venice as a city of conspiracy and danger, the author took me on a thrilling track following, and losing, the Darling art historian through canals and islands known for hiding secrets. Secrecy feeds the underlying drama of law, art history and family in this thriller. —Mary Faraci, Florida

David Glass is the co-founder of a fast growing high tech company in San Francisco's Silicon Valley. He's young, good looking and phenomenally successful. The country's financial media routinely list him as one of the country's wealthiest people. The one thing he wants most of all is something he doesn't have - a life.After years of working eighty-hour weeks, he's lost the laser-like focus that made him successful. He's feeling burnt-out and impulsively decides to leave the company he helped propel to the top of its field. He wants to find that "something" that's been missing in his life.He just doesn't know what it is.A chance encounter in a tiny Italian ristorante in San Francisco leads him to hope that an obscure villa hidden away in the ancient Chianti Hills of Tuscany might somehow hold the secret to his finding that missing part of his life.He soon realizes just what it is he's been looking for and just as quickly has the answer within his reach - almost!A cruel disappointment shatters that hope and he finds that his enormous wealth is better at solving other people's problems than it is for his own.The idea that he can somehow regain that hope at the Villa in Tuscany is a powerful lure for David and pulls him relentlessly in that direction. But nowhere in the slick, colorful brochure for the Villa Murci is there the least hint of the danger and terrible disappointment he's going to face.
