Following the war, Piller becomes an investigator assigned the task of identifying and redistributing stolen art, resulting in the flamboyant van Meegeren being accused of collaboration--a crime punishable by death. But, despite mounting evidence, Piller, with the aid of his assistant ... becomes increasingly convinced of Han's innocence and finds himself in the unlikely position of fighting to save his life."-- Container.
