A compelling psychological thriller of madness and salvation . . .
To the Sacramento art community, Albert Metzer is the handsome, successful owner of a cutting-edge gallery. But Albert has secrets he dare not tell.
Beneath the floorboards of his gallery lies a hidden room, which Albert clandestinely converts into his private gallery. He then befriends Jerry, a homeless man suffering from PTSD, and enlists him to help steal thirteen masterpieces, including one that depicts a captivating young man to whom Albert finds himself strangely drawn.
As Albert's perfect crime unravels, so does his grasp on reality. The young man from the painting startlingly comes to life, convincing Albert to do his dark bidding.
Can Albert's fragile mental state withstand the trauma of a shattered love affair, his growing doubts about Jerry's unreliable brain, the dogged pursuit by a criminal investigator, and most importantly, the malevolent power of the young man from the painting?
