The main character is Dr. Benjamin Revere, an art historian. In my opinion, this book is better than any of the others (all Gideon Oliver mysteries) I've read by Elkins.

Love Elkins Gidgeon Oliver mysteries, but this one is not in that series. It is about an art theft that takes place in 1945 by the Nazi's. A painting surfaces 50 years later in a Boston pawnshop, the owner is killed and the painting stolen. Ex-curator Benjamin Revere, in trying to solve his friend's murder follows the painting back through the last 5 decades, gets caught in a conspiracy of greed, lies, hatred and blood. - from the books backcover.
