But when that very same long-missing Degas painting is delivered to ClaireΠ²Π‚β„’ s studio, she begins to suspect that it may itself be a forgery.

Her desperate search for the truth leads Claire into a labyrinth of deceit where secrets hidden since the late nineteenth century may be the only evidence that can now save her life.
