Soup to Nuts: A jaunty adventure and a tricky art heist (12 terrific laugh out loud series Book 12)

What does it take to be happy?
Laurie Gilquist figures it takes the normal way-markers in life
Car, wife, house, kids. At 23 years old he longs for the day when
he can start living.
But when he finds a painting--quite possibly a 16th century
priceless still life in the linen cupboard, his luck and life are about to change
On his unlikely journey across Europe to find the owner of the painting and a wayward father,
he finds friendship, a gift for helping people and a belief that folks are the same the world over.
But-
that's after being run over, escaping near death, chased by
gangsters, being kidnapped and finding love. Not exactly the
way-markers he had in mind, although joie de vivre* sometimes
knocks you off course on your way to la dolce vita
All it takes is a plumber, a painting and the pursuit of happiness.
* the joy of life
the sweet life
