Synopsis
Follet's The Modigliani Scandal provides an in-depth look at the modern world of art. The novel follows four desperate individuals: Dee Sleign, and art historian; Charles Lampeth, a gallery owner; Dunsford Lipsey, a private detective; and Julian Black, a man deeply in debt from establishing himself in the art world. These characters find each other while on the trail of a “lost masterpiece” by an early 20th century painter named Modigliani whose brief experiment with drugs while composing his paintings gained him popularity after his death.
