But as Nazi forces encroach, Halifax realizes the true purpose of his visit: to forge masterworks of the Paris museums, and with the aid of a wily art trader, barter the fakes to Hitler's legion of art dealers. What develops is a riveting cat-and-mouse game that moves through Paris's silent streets, through the tunnels beneath its museums, and eventually into the war-torn countryside of Normandy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePaul Watkins \u003c\/b\u003eis the author of seven novels, all published by Picador, including \u003ci\u003e The Story of My Disappearance\u003c\/i\u003e, and the memoir \u003ci\u003eStand Before Your God\u003c\/i\u003e.
