The serenity of Villa Adele, nestled in the shadows of Monte Carlo, was shattered in 1901 with a mysterious murder that left the Commissioner of Police baffled.
In 1951, with the help of Island Art Inquiries, Sue Lee reopened the case, finding additional evidence exposing a hidden fortune tucked away in the secrets of Monte Carlo. A century of lost treasure that others were willing to do anything to get their hands on.
This riveting mystery spans time and space, with unexpected twists and turns at every corner.
D.M. Sorlie created the Sue Lee Mysteries, an historical fiction series that follows a timeline set during and after World War Two. The stories document global efforts to locate looted art for museums. D.M.’s work has been crafted during his extensive journeys with his beloved wife, who serves as his critic.
Writing from a Parisian apartment, Harry’s Bar in Rome, or while in New Zealand searching for Amelia Earhart for his book, “My Friend Amelia,: are just some of their adventures that inspired D.M.’s work.
