The Crown Heist

A Lost Art Mystery by Deron Hicks

Twelve-year-old Camille has never met her father and is now on her way to London to see him for the first time. Her father is a history professor and is a renowned expert in British legend. When Camille and her friend Art go to meet her father, they find out he is missing and could be in grave danger. This is the start of unraveling a mystery to find a long-missing object and save her father. This book is full of twists and turns that keep the reader guessing up until the very end. Embedded within the book are QR codes to scan when reading that add art history lessons to the narrative. QR codes are a fun way to make the story more interactive. This book is part of the Lost Art Series and a sequel to The Rembrandt Conspiracy. Although it is book three in the series, it can be read as a stand-alone narrative.
