Organized crime bosses, power-hungry government officials, filthy rich Manhattan art people, and a notorious forger all vie for control of a $100 million painting. 

A previously unknown Picasso—hidden for decades in the attic of a French villa—rocks the art world.
The momentous discovery is transported to a New York auction house. 
Whoever possesses this artwork will make an indelible mark. 
​But none of the power players are counting on a twenty-two-year-old art thief shrewd enough to steal the show.
