The Perfect Fake
Barbara Parker
First Time in Paperback
Tom Fairchild is a man with a past he can't shake. He's
struggling to make it as a graphic artist, but his probation
officer thinks he belongs in jail. When millionaire Miami
real estate developer Stuart Barlowe offers him $50,000 to
travel to Italy to make a perfect copy of a rare Renaissance
map, Tom sees a way to solve his problems . . . except that
Barlowe's daughter, Allison, a map expert herself, is being
sent with him to supervise the project. Allison and Tom were
lovers in college, but it ended badly. Now Allison is torn
between her rekindled desire and her suspicion that Tom is
pulling a scam: No one could duplicate a
five-hundred-year-old map.
Tom soon suspects that Barlowe wants a forgery, not a
duplicate. He just doesn't know why, and Allison isn't
talking. When one of Tom's contacts in Europe is murdered,
Tom and Allison go on the run, tailed by a ruthless hit man
and a rogue government agent. Then Barlowe shows up in Italy
demanding his map. Tom will have to deliver if he wants to
get out alive.
