From the looted tombs of Tuscany to the art galleries of California, a sweeping saga about family, betrayal, and the deadly trade in ancient treasures.
Tuscany, 1972. Beneath rolling vineyards and medieval hill towns lies a buried empire--and a ruthless underground economy built on stealing it.
Bardo is the most skilled tomb raider in the region, a master of the secret art of looting Etruscan burial sites and moving priceless antiquities through shadowy networks that stretch from rural Italy to the grand museums and private collections of America. For years, he has ruled this dangerous trade.
But when his son Giovanni inherits the business, everything begins to unravel. Lacking his father's instincts and authority, Giovanni becomes an easy target for rival gangs, as old alliances crumble and a once lucrative trade turns into a violent struggle for survival.
Spanning the dusty tombs of Tuscany and the rarefied world of international art dealers, The Witch's Mouth reveals the dangerous underworld behind museum treasures in a gripping saga of crime, ambition, and betrayal.
