In the fast-paced Paris art world, a forger has come home to roostIn a lavish Parisian gallery, a painting waits behind a velvet curtain. The room is full of the most interesting people in the city, but the man of the hour has not yet appeared. Al Dove never makes an early entrance. Finally, he swoops in to applause, and prepares for his moment in the spotlight. He unveils the painting, an ultrarare masterpiece from an enigmatic painter, and the room goes quiet. And then from the back, someone screams a horrible word: 'Fake!'The room erupts into a riot, which Dove escapes only with the help of his friend B. F. Cage. There is a counterfeiter at large in Paris, and finding him will draw Cage into a shadowy world of drugs, smuggling, and million-dollar murder.
