  • Hey, sugar fans, we want to recommend a great new podcast, last seen from WBUR and the Boston Globe.

  • Last seen investigates the largest unsolved art heist in history.

  • The theft of 13 pieces, half a billion dollars worth of art from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston.

  • It includes first ever interviews, unprecedented access and more than a year of investigative reporting.

  • Here's episode number one.

  • We're in a strange place.

  • Many people don't come up here.

  • You might have to duck a lot.

  • We're in the attic.

  • It's an unseasonably warm October day in Boston.

  • The attic at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum is stuffy and dimly lit.

  • Anthony Amore, the museum's head of security, has something he wants me to see.

  • We're going to go around this corner here.

  • At six two, Amore has to walk doubled over beneath the slanted eaves.

  • We are high above galleries once ransacked by thieves in a daring overnight robbery almost 30 years ago.

  • The attic space is dominated by a massive h vac system.

  • It's hum proof that it's working to keep treasures on the floors below at just the right temperature and humidity level.

  • Almost there.

  • We step out of the low amber light into much cooler air and quiet.

  • I think this is what Amore has taken me to see.
