This month on the Stacks, we will be taking a look into the world of true crime with Michael Finkel's The Art Thief: A True Story of Love, Crime, and a Dangerous Obsession, which creates a vivid of portrait of Stéphane Bréitwieser, one of the most prolific art thieves in history. Based on a series of exclusive interviews with Breitwieser—the first he has ever granted to an American journalist--Finkel narrates his fall in this epic tale of greed, arrogance, and betrayal.
