A riddle from the past and a mystery from the present come together in a thrilling game of traps. At the end of the 15th century, an old Flemish master introduces in one of his paintings, in the form of a chess game, the key to a secret that could have changed the history of Europe. Five centuries later, a young art restorer, a homosexual antique dealer, and an eccentric chess player join forces to try to solve the enigma. The investigation will lead them through a thrilling quest in which the moves of the game will open the doors to a mystery that will end up engulfing all its protagonists. The Flanders Panel is a thrilling game of traps and inversions -painting, music, literature, history, mathematical logic- that Arturo Pérez-Reverte fits together with diabolical skill. Critics have said... «In the detail of its intellectual background, it is reminiscent of Umberto Eco's novels... hard to put down.» «Rigorous construction, masterful command of the interplay between present and past. It is almost perfect.» |
