Jack Susko sets off to a gallery in Woollahra to scrape up some coin with the sale of an old art catalogue.

Along with a mysterious object from the safe, the robbers seize a valuable first edition from Jack's bag, too. When the owner of the gallery doesn't want to call the cops, Jack is offered a sizeable sum to keep silent: but when de Groot arrives at the bookshop with his heavy to renege on the deal, all bets are off. With an ease that almost constitutes a gift, Jack Susko finds himself at the centre of a world full of duplicity, lies and art theft.
