"It is 1939, and young American art student David Halifax has ventured to Paris - just before the outbreak of the Second World War. An art dealer puts some of his paintings on the market, attempting to pass them off as the work of an Old Master, but when the ruse is uncovered, it is Halifax who is arrested, and charged with forgery. As the Nazis converge upon Paris, Halifax is then press-ganged into service by the Resistance.
Halifax is painfully aware that this unwanted commission is one that could cost him his life."--BOOK JACKET.
