ART NOIR
An art appraiser walks into what should be a routine museum job—authenticate a collection, collect the fee, move on. But when his scanner reveals a barcode hidden beneath a 17th-century masterpiece, Daniel Dorsett uncovers a fraud that goes deeper than forged paintings. The curator has secrets worth killing for, and the vault door is already closing. In a world where history is whatever we say it is, the only authentic thing left might be his own destruction. Some truths are more dangerous than lies—and far more expensive.
