"[A]tale of remarkable suspense."--"Los Angeles Times""
Bob's ensuing adventure takes him from the fringes of the rare book business to Sotheby's, and from the exhibits of a run-down Times Square freak show to the curator's office of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Discovering the photographs turns out to be just the beginning; they must be evaluated and authenticated before they can be sold. This leads Bob into New York's high-end art world, a subculture that makes freak shows seem tame by comparison.
As the story continues in this updated edition, canceled auctions, disappearing buyers, and and lawsuits beset the Hubert's Museum archive. Can Bob, who always manages to screw up his most promising deals, finally make just one big score?"[A]tale of remarkable suspense."--"Los Angeles Times""[A]n irresistible and canny mash-up of Bohemian slumming and high-art posing."--"Toronto Star"
