Jonathan Argyll has sold a Titian to an L.A. museum, and delivers it in person. However, at a reception prior to the completion of the sale, the man who purchased the Titian is killed. Jonathan is pursued by the killer, although he thinks he has no idea who did it, and soon he must be rescued by the woman who he thought he could learn to live without.

Smart, quick, interesting. Not the best Argyll mystery, but a fun read.

The shift in scene to L.A. offers up great comic possibilities, and the twisty plot and colorful characters that typify the series are out in force.
