Description: How can you make money from a painting that you don't own, can't steal and couldn't fence even if you succeeded? Convince people you already stole it. A few shady players think that they can use that bright idea to gouge fifty million dollars from Jay Davidovich's employer. Davidovich is a Loss Prevention Specialist and fifty million dollars would be a good loss to prevent. Lawyer Cynthia Jakubek has left a big Wall Street firm to embark on starting her own practice. One of her clients wants to help Davidovich and stay alive in the process. Another wants a Catholic marriage to a fiancée formerly wed to someone with an interest in the painting. An annulment is needed. As the pair face brawls on street corners and in court rooms, confrontations in brothels and confessionals and Tasers and religious vestments used as weapons, they have to remember that "take no prisoners" isn't always a metaphor.
