"Framed" blows the lid off one of Melbourne's most puzzling secrets: Who stole Picasso's Weeping Woman from the NGV in 1986. Written by the brother of the brilliant artist who was framed for the crime, "Framed" draws on never-before-revealed information told to the author before his brother died. "Framed" is totally engrossing and highly controversial. It is at once a rollicking crime thriller, a vividly drawn period piece of mid-eighties Melbourne, and an expose of the murky under-belly of the city's art scene. This is a gripping speculative account of Melbourne's greatest unsolved crime. None of it may be true but few readers will.
