|title=Lost, Stolen or Shredded: Stories of missing works of art and literature
|rating=4
|genre=Art
|summary=Over the centuries, many works of art have disappeared and then come back, or been returned almost as if they had never been away. Others, less fortunate, were simply destroyed. A very few never really existed at all. That is the basis of this unusual and very intriguing read from rare book dealer, writer and broadcaster Rick Gekoski.

{{newreview
|summary=A couple of years ago, I reviewed [[The Mammoth Book of Best British Crime 8 by Maxim Jakubowski]] and it was something of a frustrating experience. There were some really good short stories in there, from excellent authors, but they were padded out by a significant number of completely unmemorable ones. The latest in the series suffers from the same lack of quality control - if anything, the ratio of hits to misses is somewhat lower.
