Book Description

When Jen arrives at Eddie Grant's door in Paris, reminding him of the passionate affair they had 20 years before in Florida, she also launches both of them on a dangerous quest for the single most valuable piece of wartime Nazi loot that remains missing, a famous Raphael self-portrait -- plus the crates of Nazi gold that accompanied it, all intended to finance the Fourth Reich.

Jen Wetzmuller found the letter among her father's papers after he was run down on the streets of Sarasota. Its clues take Eddie from his Paris home to Florida, where he barely escapes with his life, then back to Paris, where he must burrow into the darkest memories of the German occupation in search of the treasure.

Along the way he and Jen briefly restart the fiercely passionate affair that he abandoned, to his regret, 20 years before.
