Once aspiring artist Emma Caan makes a living as an art forger—legitimately, as her creations are commissioned by museums and rich collectors wanting to protect their investments. A job offer from oligarch art collector Leonard Sobetsky promises the funds and security Emma needs, but she's unprepared for the underside of the bright and shiny new world she enters. From the author of The Boys' Club; with a 50,000-copy first printing.
Narrator Andi Arndt brings charm to the story of naïve and mentally unstable art copyist Emma Caan. Working as a legal forger of valuable masterpieces for owners who wish to store the originals, Emma is flattered to be accepted into the jet-setting world of Russian oligarch Leonard Sobetsky, one of her clients. But soon her new life in the high-end art world spirals out of control, and she realizes that she is being used as a pawn. Arndt gives well-developed voices to a wide-ranging cast of secondary characters ranging from Emma’s friends and colleagues to Leonard’s Russian associates and art-world stars.
