Chris Norgren, museum curator and Renaissance art expert, heads to
Berlin to assist in mounting a sensational exhibit: The Plundered
Past--twenty priceless Old Masters looted by the Nazis, thought for
decades to be lost forever, and only recently rediscovered. But things
quickly get out of hand when Chris's patrician, fastidious boss, after
smelling a forgery in the lot, turns up dead the very next day--on the
steps of a dismal Frankfurt brothel, of all places.
Now Chris faces two daunting tasks: finding a fake painting among the
masterpieces, and a real killer whose sights are now set on him.
