DATE: 20 April 0200pm

Come to the launch of 'Framed' - a fictionalised True Crime exposé. Framed blows the lid off one of Melbourne’s most puzzling secrets. Who stole Picasso’s Weeping Woman? Written by the brother of the brilliant artist who was framed for the crime, it draws on never-before-revealed information told to the author before his brother died. Framed is utter bu****it, totally engrossing and highly controversial. It is at once a rollicking crime thriller, a vividly drawn period piece of mid-eighties Melbourne, and an exposé of the murky under-belly of the city’s art scene.
The narrative is entirely fictional, and yet it will send chills up the spine of any reader who remembers the theft of the Weeping Woman from the NGV in 1986, and the shadowy Cultural Terrorists, who claimed responsibility. This, Stuart Rosson’s third book – written with vivid filmic immediacy and flashes of literary flair – is a gripping speculative account of Melbourne’s greatest unsolved crime. None of it may be true. But few readers will escape the sense that it might just be what really happened….
