Maggie Perowne is head of Old Experts at Klinsky's public sale house in London. Ben Glazier can be an art expert. Ben, much less young as he was, is inescapably deeply in love with Maggie, but she has an unfortunate preference for such dubious men as the Hooray Henry in your wine department. Mutually Ben and Maggie form a split team that mixes integrity and professionalism with an enthusiastic eye for uncovering the mystical circumstances surrounding precious works of art. Take for example the matter of the underpriced Raphael, or the questionable Bronzino, or even the Cellini sodium cellar. Maggie and Ben might be able to discover the fakes at a hundred paces, but spotting the forger could cause trickier problems.... In the great traditions of Rumpole, John Mortimer has created an unforgettable cast of characters and struck a rich vein of humour.
