The Roubaud Connection (Book 12) (Genevieve Lenard)

<b> Brutal murders. An ancient treasure. A rogue state</b>.<br /><br />A young acquaintance of nonverbal communications expert Doctor Genevieve Lenard begs her to look into the disappearance of his friend. When the friend's tortured body is found in a forest outside Strasbourg, the case leads Genevieve and her team to the body of a second victim with many unusual secrets--a forged masterpiece the least surprising of them all; an ancient treasure shrouded in mystery the most intriguing.<br /><br />While Genevieve is frantically searching for a motivation behind the murders, more tortured bodies are dumped in the forests surrounding the city--all connected to her young acquaintance. And the moment she discovers that the evidence points to a rogue state, her young acquaintance also disappears.<br /><br />Without knowing who the killer is and why he's torturing his victims, there will be no stopping him. Or saving her friend from vicious suffering and eventual death.
