One frosty January morning in 1892, Jack Clare leaves his wife Diane in their Paris flat with a parcelled painting under his arm and plans for a celebration lunch. The duplicate Rembrandt he carries pulls him into a fraud that wrecks his life, and five years later the threads lead to Wardour Street, Pall Mall and a so-called friend.
A brisk late-Victorian mystery of art theft and betrayal, for fans of period detective fiction. Download the free EPUB.
