For fans of B. A. Shapiro's Art Forger and Daniel Silva's Art Collector, a courageous female art dealer blocks a heist of valuable paintings and an international conspiracy in this gripping caper.
Young widow Ally Blake risks everything to save her grieving family from bankruptcy by choosing to exhibit at an art fair in Bogotá in the 1990s—during the height of the drug wars. When her art crates are mysteriously tampered with, she discovers an ex-boyfriend from her State Department days has involved her in a money laundering scheme. Now it’s up to her to stop the fraud, save herself, and secure her family’s future—but pulling it off will require the art deal of a lifetime.
