Acerca de esta escucha
A forensic audit at the Vatican Museum reveals looting on a grand scale. A corrupt antiquities dealer has been plundering Europe's institutions—replacing priceless originals with copies.
Darwin Lacroix, the Pope’s new Director of Special Archaeological Investigations, is repulsed by self-serving curators, profit-hungry auction houses, and secretive government Freeports. But he cannot stem the loss of artistic heritage. Until a sale goes wrong.
When a Marseilles art gang calls in a loan, the dealer snares Darwin into stealing a cherished Etruscan vase to cover it.
His reputation in tatters, Darwin sets his own trap, but a mole in his team discovers the ruse and triggers a kidnapping. As threats escalate, he chases clues across Europe, the American Southwest, and the Tyrrhenian Sea. Ultimately, he must choose between stopping the pillaging or saving his friend.
Tuscan Hoax is the action-packed fourth novel in the Darwin Lacroix Adventure archaeological thriller series.

An archaeological thriller with an X-Files feel that will take you on a pulse-pounding ride you won't soon forget. When an unknown American explorer goes missing in the Patagonia, not many people notice—at first. But as Chilean authorities investigate, they’re alarmed. This isn’t a one-off disappearance. In fact, scores of people have vanished in this vast swath of nature in recent years. And no one knows why. Journals left behind by the explorer suggest he was searching for a mythical Inca city and the promise of unimaginable wealth and power. Chilean officials doubt the wild claims ...

UNIMAGINABLE POWER LIES HIDDEN UNDER THE SANDS OF THE SAHARAThe god-like power promised by the lost desert city of Zerzura is as frightening as it is alluring. Former secret agent Sean Wyatt and his best friend, Tommy Schultz, have never hunted anything like it. But the legend and the unlimited power it promises are so improbable that other archeologists—including Tommy’s parents—gave up looking for Zerzura decades ago. Most call it a myth. That all changes when a chance discovery in the Middle East reveals long-hidden clues about the possible truth behind the Zerzura legend and ...

Not “Tuscan”
The story is suitable gripping, but other than references to Etruscan treasures, the story doesn’t touch Tuscany. Takes place mostly in Corsica.
The AI narrator is just above the acceptable level of quality.
