Teenager Lawrence Pinkley unwillingly inherits his father's Private Detective Agency on the cold north east coast of England.

Meanwhile, Pinkley is employed to find a painting by Van Gogh that has mysteriously disappeared from a locked safe that appears totally impregnable. Pinkley must use all his cunning and limited intellect to find the painting whilst out foxing Doctor Ubel.Packed with surreal and laugh-out-loud moments, The Mystery of Van Gogh's Missing Heart is a hilarious crime novel that appeals to anyone from 8 to 80 (or, come to think of it, you might even like it if you're 100 years old!)Also by Tim FlanaganRead the complete Moon Stealer series: The Moon Stealers and the Quest for the Silver Bough (Book 1) The Moon Stealers and the Queen of the Underworld (Book 2) The Moon Stealers and the Everlasting Night (Book 3) The Moon Stealers and the Children of the Light (Book 4)The Moon Stealers Box Set (Books 1-4)Lawrence Pinkley Mysteries - Winner of the Coffee Reader's Book Award 2015The Curious Disappearance of Professor BrownThe Mystery of Van Gogh's Missing HeartLawrence Pinkley's Casebook.
