An L.A. Times Book Prize Finalist | An O Magazine Best Book of the Year“Stylish… a compelling take on the eternal question of how good people morph into criminals. Terrific.”—People, Book of the WeekFrom the author of The Destroyers comes an "intricately plotted and elegantly structured" (Newsday) story of intrigue and deception, set in contemporary Venice and featuring a young American couple who have set their sights on a risky con. When Nick Brink and his boyfriend Clay Guillory meet up on the Grand Canal in Venice, they have a plan in mind—and it doesn’t involve a vacation. Nick and Clay are running away from their turbulent lives in New York City, each desperate for a happier, freer future someplace else. Their method of escape? Selling a collection of counterfeit antiques to a brash, unsuspecting American living out his retirement years in a grand palazzo. With Clay’s smarts and Nick’s charm, their scheme is sure to succeed. As it turns out, tricking a millionaire out of money isn’t as easy as it seems, especially when Clay and Nick let greed get the best of them. As Nick falls under the spell of the city’s decrepit magic, Clay comes to terms with personal loss and the price of letting go of the past. Their future awaits, but it is built on disastrous deceits, and more than one life stands in the way of their dreams. A Beautiful Crime is a twisty grifter novel with a thriller running through its veins. But it is also a meditation on love, class, race, sexuality, and the legacy of bohemian culture. Tacking between Venice’s soaring aesthetic beauty and its imminent tourist-riddled collapse, Bollen delivers a "brilliantly conceived international crime story" (Good Morning America).

I don’t know how anyone can give this book a high rating. This is no Talented Mr. Ripley, but it sure did try to be. The heist set up dragged on and on with dull background material, and wasn’t particularly unique or clever. Whatever...a couple of underachievers con a rich guy...which was ridiculous anyway because no one would drop $700K on someunauthenticated merchandise, even if he or she thought it was an amazing deal. I kept hoping the climax would be wellstructured and astonishing, but the ending was peculiar, unbelievable and abrupt. Lastly, say what you want, but personally I don’t want to hear gratuitous details of gay sex when there was absolutely no point in including this...it was as if these details were included to check off a box. Take a pass on this one.
