When an estate auction of a recently deceased british lord turns up what might be a group of lost erotic paintings by Joseph Turner, art dealer Fred makes arrangements to buy them clandestinely for his boss Clayton Reed. As Fred and Clayton scramble to prove that the paintings are authentic ones, people start turning up dead as other dealers, as well as the british lord's son, scheme to get their hands on the paintings, and it's up to Fred to sort through the mess. A quick, fairly entertaining art history mystery.
