As St. Patrick’s Day festivities in 1990 were winding down in Boston, thirteen pieces of artwork were plucked from the walls of the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum by two subjects posing as police officers. In eighty-one minutes, they stole some of the world’s most valuable pieces of artwork, including a rare Vermeer and Rembrandt’s only known seascape. The total loss associated with this robbery has been estimated at over $1 billion.
For more than three decades, the FBI pursued the greatest unsolved art theft in history. For twenty-two of those years, Special Agent Geoff Kelly led the investigation, following leads around the world in search of the thirteen masterpieces stolen from Boston's Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum.
In THIRTEEN PERFECT FUGITIVES: The True Story of the Mob, Murder, and the World’s Largest Art Heist, Kelly shares never-before-revealed details of the case, including how a mysterious phone call in 2009 reignited the investigation and led him into the dangerous world of mobsters, thieves, and killers.
Join Kelly for a fascinating firsthand account of the investigation that identified those responsible for the infamous 1990 robbery, even though the priceless artwork remains missing. Discover why he calls the stolen masterpieces the "thirteen perfect fugitives" and hear the untold story behind one of the FBI's most captivating cases.
Don't miss this unforgettable evening of true crime, art, and history.
