Beschreibung
A well-to-do bachelor, who sees no more promise in love. A beautiful young woman with a mysterious past. A picture and its price. An auction, which causes an uproar in the art community - and a few who come up short in their desire for the big money. A wonderful novel about the international art market whose inventive cast includes the super-rich, a faker, a con man and an auction expert. As much Poe and Chandler as Hitchcock and Truffaut.
