✦ Synopsis


When John Mannering (aka 'The Baron') set out to value on old lady's paintings, blackmail, arson and murder followed. A young girl almost paid with her life for keeping silent, houses were destroyed to prevent detection, and Mannering was in instant peril of losing his life. The battle was for the truth – who was blackmailing whom and why – tested every skill he possessed. Breughel, Vermeer and other masterpieces meant big money – but brought big trouble for 'The Baron'.
