A Brush with the Enemy

Artist Yvette Dufour fakes works of art.  She's good at it. 

Ex-Nazi, Rutger Dahl a collector of Fine Art knows a forgery when he sees one.  And he's looking at one his aide collected from a Paris dealer.  The original would have been the Dahl Foundation's latest acquisition. He's out a cool $100,000 and looking for revenge and hunts down the dealer and an oblivious Yvette.

Dahl finds their paths have crossed in World War 2  France when he orchestrated a  raid on her family home. 

Found to be a collaborator with the Allies and facing certain death, Yvette in a struggle  hit him with a poker that cost him his right eye.  She escaped his clutches then, but this time it's different.  He abducts and incarcerates Yvette. Her future looks bleak until she smuggles a message out. But with her disappearance logged as no more than a missing person by the authorities nothing happens.  Desperate for help, her sister enlists the help of two ex-servicemen their family sheltered in the war.  One well-connected American and one Brit.

With tacit assistance from the CIA, British Intelligence and the hands-on help of Mossad they stage their own rescue mission.
