Publisher's Synopsis
When April Vogt's boss tells her about the discoveries in a cramped, decrepit ninth arrondissement apartment, the Sotheby's continental furniture specialist does not hear the words 'dust' or 'rats' or 'shuttered for seventy years'. She hears Paris. She hears escape. April quickly learns the apartment is not merely some rich hoarder's repository. Beneath the dust and cobwebs and stake perfumed air is a goldmine. With the help of a salty (and annoyingly sexy) Parisian solicitor and the courtesan's private documents. April tries to uncover the secrets buried in the apartment.
