5.0 out of 5 stars Good Mystery - Art Related, March 4, 2006
By 
Mary Davis (Southern California) - See all my reviews
If you love mysteries dealing with art then you will love this book. Chris Norgren is a curator for the Seattle Art Museum and he gets involved in some interesting adventures.

Pick up this book or one of the others in the series, I am sure you will agree with me that it is well worth your time. It is an interesting read.

Aaron Elkins wrote three books in the Chris Norgren series: "Old Scores", "A Deceptive Clarity" and "Glancing Light".

I wish Mr. Elkins would continue the series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Art Mystery, July 22, 2002
This review is from: Old Scores (Mass Market Paperback)
When eccentric art patron, Rene Vachey, decides to donate an original Rembrandt to the Seattle Art Museum, curator Chris Norgren is cautious. Rene is known for playing tricks on museums and making them look silly so Chris flies to France to inspect the painting. Shortly after he arrives, he is thrown out a window and later that night, Rene is murdered. Fearing that the painting may be the reason for the murder, Chris starts to investigate. I love this series because of the way that Aaron Elkins shows artwork through the eyes of Chris Norgren as well as for the good mystery.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Chris Norgren Mystery..., January 5, 2009
By 
Judy Smith "judylynnsbooks" (jamestown, ky United States) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   
A famous art collector wants to give the Seattle Art Museum an original Rembrandt...so why isn't Chris Norgren, curator of Renaissance and Baroque Art, smiling? Perhaps because the gift seems too good to be true. The collector is the elderly Rene Vachey, one of the art world's most controversial eccentrics. The Rembrandt has come out of nowhere...in fact, from a Paris junk shop...with no known history of ownership. Vachey will let Chris examine the painting, but he's not allowed to make scientific tests before he officially accepts the painting for the museum. Could the whole episode be a cruel hoax? In attempting to find out Chris must use all his wits and expertise in a perplexing quest for a killer, the evaluation of a painting, and the untangling of a complex man's many layered past.
