Prepare to enter the dark heart of the art world in the latest gripping installment of Peter James's award-winning Roy Grace series (now a major ITV drama)!
Harry and Freya, an ordinary couple, harbor a secret dream: to unearth a hidden treasure amidst the clutter of a car boot sale. A dream they know is a long shot… until the day it becomes a reality.
They purchase a seemingly unremarkable portrait for a few pounds, intending to salvage its ornate frame. But back home, a closer look reveals something extraordinary: another painting beneath the drab surface, a breathtaking landscape. Could it be a lost masterpiece from 1770, worth a fortune beyond their wildest imaginations?
One collector believes it is. And he's not afraid to use any means necessary to acquire it. He wants what he wants, and he'll stop at nothing to get it.
Detective Superintendent Roy Grace finds himself thrust into the unfamiliar and rarefied world of fine art. On the surface, it's a world of respectability, of gentlemen and refined taste. But beneath the polished veneer, Grace quickly discovers a darker truth: greed, deception, and violence lurk just below the surface. And Harry and Freya Kipling are about to learn that their dream has become a terrifying nightmare.
