Publisher's Synopsis
A daring art theft in Paris leaves law enforcement agencies around the world asking one baffling question: "What do you do with five priceless works of art that you cannot sell?" Enter William Forbes, Art Loss Register Investigator, desperate to discover the fate of the paintings. But soon he discovers he is not alone in his search for the truth. Enquiries lead him to Sotheby's employee, Senga Monroe, who is at the very heart of a breaking fraud scandal involving her former lover. A man keen to silence the lovely Senga once and for all. With a price on her head, Senga has bought an ancient Roman Helmet, as a peace offering. But to raise the cash, she had to sell a forgery to LeCoyte Chellen, the very man, Forbes believes responsible for the Paris theft. New friends, old enemies, and a sadistic killer make this a mission Forbes will never forget. As time runs out, the odds for survival grow longer, until Forbes is forced to take the ultimate gamble.
