Dealing in Nazi looted art is still a highly lucrative business today in which state museums, auction houses, and collectors are all involved. The journalist Stefan Koldehoff went on the trail of those who committed it and those who profit from it. In his book, he reveals the illegal methods by which looted art made its way into the Museums and collections. And he describes the political scandal of an art trust which to this day refuses to return the looted pictures.
