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
